type Taxon string

Taxon represents a single taxonomic unit. It is a string type that can represent multiple levels of a taxonomy, separated by a `/`. For example, a Taxon could be "storage/database/rdbms/postgres", representing a hierarchical structure of categories.

func NewTaxonomy

func NewTaxonomy(levels ...string) Taxon

NewTaxonomy function takes a variadic parameter of strings representing levels and joins them into a single Taxon using the separator. This function is used to create a new Taxon. For example, NewTaxonomy("storage", "database", "rdbms", "postgres") would return a Taxon "storage/database/rdbms/postgres".

func (Taxon) Split
