Installation instructions

Get the latest stable R release from CRAN. Then install changchang from Bioconductor using the following code:

if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE)) {
    install.packages("BiocManager")
}

BiocManager::install("changchang")

Input data

`tantan`

To load output of tantan the simplest at the moment is to convert its output to BED format and use the loadTantan() function. Here is an exmaple on how to produce the BED file.

tantan -w 10 -f4 example.fasta | tee example.tantan.txt | awk 'OFS="\t" {print $1, $2, $3, $6, $5, "."}'  > example.tantan.bed

Other tandem repeat finder softwares

Example

This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:

library("changchang") |> suppressPackageStartupMessages()
loadTantan(system.file('extdata/example.bed.xz', package="changchang"))
