Description: A comprehensive R package for calculating melting temperatures of nucleic acid sequences. 
    Implements three calculation methods:
    1. Wallace rule (Thein & Wallace, 1986)
    2. Empirical formulas based on GC content (Marmur, 1962; Schildkraut, 2010; Wetmur, 1991; 
       Untergasser, 2012; von Ahsen, 2001)
    3. Nearest neighbor thermodynamics (Breslauer, 1986; Sugimoto, 1996; Allawi, 1998; 
       SantaLucia, 2004; Freier, 1986; Xia, 1998; Chen, 2012; Bommarito, 2000; Turner, 2010; 
       Sugimoto, 1995; Allawi, 1997; Santalucia, 2005)
    Includes corrections for:
    - Salt ions (SantaLucia, 1996, 1998; Owczarzy, 2004, 2008)
    - Chemical compounds (dimethyl sulfoxide, formamide)
    Supports both direct sequence input and FASTA file input.
