		Functional Shannon Entropy for Virome Mutational Analysis //
		Estimates Shannon entropy, per gene and per genomic position,
		associated with non-synonymous mutation frequencies in viral
		populations, such as wastewater samples. The package uses codon
		translations for functional insights. Each amino acid can be
		treated as an individual state, resulting in a 20-state entropy
		computation, or grouped into one of six physicochemical
		classes, adding further functional context. Provides normalized
		values (0-1 scale) to facilitate the direct comparison of
		different genomic positions or total functional entropy across
		multiple metagenomes. Designed to analyze mutational data using
		tabular 'Single Nucleotide Variant' (SNV) frequency tables
		generated by variant callers (e.g., 'iVar' or 'LoFreq'),
		operating independently of consensus sequence estimation and
		multiple sequence alignment.
