This function reads BED files from a specified directory or file path and
combines them into a single data frame. BED files use 0-based coordinate starts,
while this function transforms the coordinates to 1-based during import.
Arguments
- path
A character string specifying the directory containing BED files
or the file path to a single BED file.
Value
A data frame combining data from the BED files.
Details
This function can read multiple BED files from a directory or a
single BED file from a specified path. It adds a 'filename' column with the
name of the file, and combines the data frames from all files into one.
Examples
if (FALSE) {
# Read BED files from a directory
bed_data <- read_bed("path/to/directory")
# Read a single BED file
bed_data <- read_bed("path/to/file.bed")
}
