OpenStatsComplementarySplit: Method "OpenStatsComplementarySplit"

In OpenStats: A Robust and Scalable Software Package for Reproducible Analysis of High-Throughput genotype-phenotype association

Description

This function splits the input data according to the defined values in the 'variables' parameter and runs separate analyses on the split datasets. For example, the default split, c("Sex", "LifeStage"), creates independent input data for Males (only), Females, Early, Late, Male.Early, Males.Late, Females.Early, Females.Late and analyses these datasets separately.

Usage

OpenStatsComplementarySplit(
	object    = NULL,
	variables = c("Sex", "LifeStage"),
	debug     = FALSE
)

Arguments

object	Mandatory argument. An instance of the 'OpenStatsAnalysis' object under the MM (linear mixed model) framework.
variables	Vector of names. A vector of variable names that will be fed into the split engine. The default is 'c("Sex", "LifeStage")' that should report the results for the following categories: Males, Females, Early, Late, Male.Early, Males.Late, Females.Early, Females.Late.
debug	Logical flag. Set to TRUE to see the analysis log. Default FALSE.

Value

List of splits and the analysis outputs. The splits contain the name of the partitioning levels (for example Female or Female.Age_15_weeks), and an 'OpenStatsAnalysis' object including the input data, outputs etc. See the examples for a general view of the output object.
