 ## Overview
 
-tidytacos (tidy TAxonomic COmpositionS) is an R package for the exploration of microbial community data. Such community data consists of read counts generated by amplicon sequencing (e.g. a region of the 16S rRNA gene) or metagenome (shotgun) sequencing. Each read count represents a number of sequencing reads identified for some taxon (an OTU, ASV, species, or higher-level taxon) in a sample.

-tidytacos builds on the [tidyverse](https://www.tidyverse.org/) created by [Hadley Wickham](http://hadley.nz/): the data are stored in tidy tables where each row is an observation and each column a variable. In addition, the package supplies a set of "verbs": functions that take a tidytacos object as first argument and also return a tidytacos object.

In addition, the package supplies a set of "verbs": functions that take a tidytacos object as first argument and also return a tidytacos object. This makes it easy to construct "pipe chains" of code that represent series of operations performed on the tidytacos object.
