Exact matcher
match_exact(x, ref = NULL, against = NULL) # S3 method for character match_exact(x, ref = NULL, against = NULL)
| x | Input species list, a character vector |
|---|---|
| ref | (character) Reference taxon data.frame, or file path |
| against | (character) What column to match against in data.frame. Ignored if a vector given |
