addPheno-RnBSet-methods: addPheno

In RnBeads: RnBeads

Description

Adds phenotypic or processing information to the sample annotation table of the given RnBSet object.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'RnBSet'
addPheno(object, trait, header)

Arguments

object	RnBSet of interest.
trait	Trait as a non-empty vector or factor. The length of this vector must be equal to the number of samples in object, the i-th element storing the value for the i-th sample. Note that names, if present, are ignored.
header	Trait name given as a one-element character. This is the heading to be used for the sample annotation table. This method fails if such a trait already exists; in other words, if header %in% names(pheno(object)).

Value

The modified dataset as an object of type RnBSet.
