\title{Remove small factor levels  and reorder}
\usage{
reorder_column(summarized_experiment, column, threshold = 0)
}
\arguments{
\item{summarized_experiment}{A large list created prior by multimodalR.}

\item{column}{Character - column name}

\item{threshold}{Integer - threshold of counts; any factor level with equal or less counts are discarded}
}
\value{
Returns the same large list with changed column names of the expressionmatrix.
}
\description{
This function removes factor levels with counts less than a set value. Additionally, it reorders the factor levels depending on the counts.
This may be necessary later on to get ordered labels when plotting.
}
\examples{
lungMeta <- reorder.colums(lungMeta, "primary_diagnosis", 10) #keeps factor levels with >= 10 counts.
