ERROR: reduce the number of sample categories to less than 15

[mattbawn]

Hi,

I have installed v1.1.2 on my local cluster and it works with the sample data. When I run it using my own data however I get the above message even though I have only 14 Samples and Categories.

I have noticed the following in the traitar code though at line 140:

if len(uq) > 12:
sys.exit("reduce the number of sample categories to less than 15")

Is this a typo?

I am currently attempting to run with 9 samples and categories which seems to have got further.

Thanks,

Matt

Hi Matt,

Thanks for your interest in Traitar. You're absolutely right. I must have made a mistake there. The limit in the error message doesn't seem to correspond with the conditional in the code. You can safely overwrite e.g. to

if len(uq) > 15:
sys.exit("reduce the number of sample categories to less than 15")

I implemented this check to make sure the heatmap still renders properly, but it doesn't actually affect the Traitar functionality. I will fix this in the next release.

Thanks again,

Aaron
