## rnb.find.relative.site.coord

### Description

given a region types, assigns sites to regions and determines relative positions of sites in the assigned region

### Usage

    rnb.find.relative.site.coord(rnb.set, region.type, extend.by = 0.33)

### Arguments

`rnb.set` | RnBSet object
`region.type` | Region type for which the coordinates are computed
`extend.by` | A number between 0 and 1 specifying the percentage by which a region is extended in order to capture methylation information before region start and after region end

### Value

a data frame containing the site index, the assigned region index and the relative coordinate The relative coordinate is 0 if the site's coordinate is identical to the region start coordinate and 1 if identical to the regions end coordinate and scaled inbetween. Coordinates can be less than 0 or larger than 1 if a site is in the upstream or downstream flanking region respectively
