Examples

## See the 'read_vcfs_as_granges()' example for how we obtained the
## following data:
vcfs <- readRDS(system.file("states/read_vcfs_as_granges_output.rds",
                package="MutationalPatterns"))

## Load the corresponding reference genome.

library(ref_genome, character.only = TRUE)

mut_context <- mut_context(vcfs[[1]], ref_genome)
