[![Project Status: WIP - Initial development is in progress, but there has not yet been a stable, usable release suitable for the public.](http://www.repostatus.org/badges/latest/wip.svg)](https://www.repostatus.org/)

[![cran version](http://www.r-pkg.org/badges/version/taxa)](https://cran.r-project.org/package=taxa)

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.
