incorrect rank of classification #31

Closed nhoffman closed 9 years ago

nhoffman commented 9 years ago

When the number of species over the ID threshold exceeds the species count threshold, a genus-level name is returned, but the rank is still species - the name and the rank should agree.

The target_rank (or threshold_rank) is the lowest rank of a sometimes mutli-rank assignment name. We will replace target_rank with the opposite, highest rank, and name the new column condensed_rank.

target_rank -> best_rank

best_rank is the most common condensed_id rank.
