Now we move on to actually filtering and quality trimming our reads. Again use `?` to see what filterAndTrim does, and what the various options are here. Although we will later only use the forward reads, we will still trim forward and reverse as pairs!!!
```plaintext
> filtered_out <- filterAndTrim(fnFs, filtFs, fnRs, filtRs, maxN=0, maxEE=c(5,5), compress=TRUE, multithread=8)
> filtered_out <- filterAndTrim(fnFs, filtFs, fnRs, filtRs, maxN=0, maxEE=c(5,5), compress=TRUE, multithread=8, minLen=100)
```
What is maxEE? Feel free to try out other options like truncQ and truncLen to see if they change the output.
