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!!! Now we move on to actually filtering and quality trimming our reads.

> 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. What is maxEE? Feel free to try out other options like truncQ and truncLen to see if they change the output.
