taxon_rank_level

Used to store taxon rank level information. This is used in <code>taxon_rank()</code> objects.

internal

Provides classes for storing and manipulating taxonomic data.
Most of the classes can be treated like base R vectors (e.g. can be used
in tables as columns and can be named). Vectorized classes can store taxon names
and authorities, taxon IDs from databases, taxon ranks, and other types of
information. More complex classes are provided to store taxonomic trees and
user-defined data associated with them.

taxon_rank_level function

<dl><dt>level</dt>
<dd>Zero or more taxonomic rank names. If a named numeric is
applied, the names are used for levels and the numeric values are used
for the order. Inputs will be transformed to a <code>character</code> vector.</dd>
<dt>order</dt>
<dd>Integers that determine the relative order of taxonomic levels.
Inputs will be transformed to a <code>integer</code> vector. <code>NA</code>s can be used to
indicate that the order is not known.</dd>
<dt>guess_order</dt>
<dd>If <code>TRUE</code> and no order is given, try to guess order based on rank names.</dd>
<dt>impute_na</dt>
<dd>If <code>TRUE</code>, fill in NAs based on nearby values (assumed in ascending order).</dd></dl>
