Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: numpy 1.26+, pandas 2.2+, scanpy 1.10+, xcms 4.0+

Before using code patterns, verify installed versions match. If versions differ:

• Python: pip show <package> then help(module.function) to check signatures
• R: packageVersion('<pkg>') then ?function_name to verify parameters
• CLI: <tool> --version then <tool> --help to confirm flags

If code throws ImportError, AttributeError, or TypeError, introspect the installed package and adapt the example to match the actual API rather than retrying.

MS-DIAL Preprocessing

"Process my LC-MS data with MS-DIAL" → Detect chromatographic peaks, align across samples, annotate metabolites, and export a feature table for statistical analysis.

• CLI: MS-DIAL GUI or console mode for peak picking and alignment
