shuffledRandomScores: Generates Null-Distribution for List-Overlap-Scores
In OrderedList: Similarities of Ordered Gene Lists

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) See Also

A null-distribution for list-overlap scores is generated via simulation. Scores are computed for random permutations.

1	shuffledRandomScores(n, nn, bases, B = 1000, two.sided=TRUE)

`n`	the length of the lists.
`nn`	the maximal ranks to be considered, one entry per weighting parameter alpha.
`bases`	`exp(-alpha)` for each weighting parameter alpha.
`B`	the number of permutations to be drawn.
`two.sided`	if `TRUE` both ends of the lists are taken into account, only top ranks are considered otherwise.

Returns an object of type "shuffledRandomScores. Its only data is a matrix of random scores. One column per alpha and one row per permutation is generated.

There are print and plot methods for "shuffledRandomScores objects.
