#' @description Read the otu, taxonomy and metadata from various formats.
#' @param otu.file File containing the OTU table (for mothur this is the file

#' @param metadata.file File containing samples x variables metadata.
#' @param type Input data type: 'mothur' or 'simple' or 'biom' type.

#' @export
#' @details See help(read_mothur2phyloseq) for details on the Mothur input
#' format; and help(read_biom2phyloseq) for details on the biom format.
#' The simple format refers to the set of CSV files written by the
#' \code{\link{write_phyloseq}} function.
