This is an R package that provides classes to store and manipulate
taxonomic data. Most of the classes can be used like base R vectors.
This project is a partial rewrite of the previous version of taxa and
is currently under development.
A note about recent changes:
This is beginning of a complete rewrite of the previous taxa package
to make the more basic component classes more like base R vectors. The
taxmap class is not yet reimplemented, but will be similar to the
class in the previous versions of taxa. The old version of taxa has
been incorporated into the metacoder package until this version of
taxa is mature, at which time metacoder will also use this version.
