Overview
clustur was developed for two main reasons: to allow developers to easily create pipelines with mothur code in R, and to give users a powerful clustering algorithm from mothur without having to download it. Because clustur is built using rcpp, it benefits from the speed of C++ and the usability of R. Additionally, since clustur will be open source, developers can modify are package as needed. This will not only help us continue to create high quality packages, but will allow everyone to take advantage of the foundation that is already built.
Installation

function:
# install via cran
install.packages("clustur")
