Reverse the Q-View internal naming convention

Source: R/strip-prefix.R
strip_qview_prefix.Rd

[Experimental]

Usage

strip_qview_prefix(x)

Arguments

x

Character vector of Q-View internal names.

Value

Character vector of the same length as x, with prefixes stripped. NAs and unrecognised values pass through unchanged.

Details

On import, the producing software prefixes well-assignment template names with single-letter codes:

  • "Cal 1" ... "Cal N" -> "ICal 1" ... "ICal N" (Internal calibrator)

  • "Low" -> "GLow"

  • "High" -> "HHigh"

  • "FD..." and any all-digit ID -> "N..." (sample prefix)

strip_qview_prefix() reverses this transformation so that downstream code sees the identifiers exactly as they appear in the original template CSV. Strings that do not match a known prefix pattern are returned unchanged.

Examples

strip_qview_prefix(c("ICal 1", "GLow", "HHigh",
                     "NFD24277364", "N1211498458", "Plate 1"))
#> [1] "Cal 1"      "Low"        "High"       "FD24277364" "1211498458"
#> [6] "Plate 1"
