boxplot-MethyLumiM-methods: boxplot of a MethyLumiM object

In lumi: BeadArray Specific Methods for Illumina Methylation and Expression Microarrays

Description

Creating a hdr.boxplot of the M-value in a MethyLumiM object

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'MethyLumiM'
boxplot(x, main, logMode = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

x	a MethyLumiM-class object
main	title of the boxplot
logMode	only works when the dataType of x is "Intensity"
...	optional arguments to bwplot.

Details

Because the density plot of M-values usually includes two modes, using the traditional boxplot cannot accurately represent the distribution of the data. Here we use violin plot to show the density of M-values by samples
