## to plot genetic code as in textbooks

### Description

This function plots a genetic code table as in textbooks, that is following the order `T > C > A > G` so that synonymous codons are almost always in the same boxes.

### Usage

    tablecode(numcode = 1, urn.rna = s2c("TCAG"), dia = FALSE, latexfile = NULL,
    label = latexfile, size = "normalsize", caption = NULL,
    preaa = rep("", 64), postaa = rep("", 64),
    precodon = preaa, postcodon = postaa)

### Arguments

`numcode` | The genetic code number as in `translate`
`urn.rna` | The letters to display codons, use s2c("UCAG") if you want the code in terms of RNA sequence
`latexfile` | The name of a LaTex file if you want to redirect the output
`label` | The label for the LaTeX table
`size` | The LaTex size of characters for the LaTeX table
`preaa` | A string to insert before the amino-acid in the LaTeX table
`postaa` | A string to insert after the amino-acid in the LaTeX table
`precodon` | A string to insert before the codon in the LaTeX table
`postcodon` | A string to insert after the codon in the LaTeX table
`caption` | The caption of the LaTeX table
`dia` | to produce a yellow/blue plot for slides

### Details

The codon order for `preaa`, `postaa`, `precodon`, and `postcodon` should be the same as in `paste(paste(rep(s2c("tcag"), each =16), s2c("tcag"), sep = ""), rep(s2c("tcag"), each = 4), sep = "")`
