# mass2chem - low level utilities in interpreting mass spectrometry data

This package provides 
- functions on handling chemical formulas
- formula based adduct calculation 
- indexing and search functions on mass spec data
- libraries of common metabolites, contaminants, mass differences
- [to-do] functions of chemical similary, dataset similarity

Pychemy (https://github.com/ginkgobioworks/pychemy). 
Pychemy at this time isn't good fit for high-resolution metabolomics because its mass calculation is not of enough precision. E.g. in pychemy.adducts, it's wrong to use ('M+3H', 0.33,  1.0073),
because the computing/rounding error in 0.33 (correct is 1/3) is far too large for mass precision.
For high-resolution measurements, electrons should be considered too.
