DECIPHER-package {DECIPHER} | R Documentation

## Tools for curating, analyzing, and manipulating biological sequences

### Description

DECIPHER is a software toolset that can be used for deciphering and managing biological sequences efficiently using the R statistical programming language. The program is designed to be used with non-destructive workflows for importing, maintaining, analyzing, manipulating, and exporting a massive amount of sequences.
