Description

Objects of this class store all the values needed information to work with a estimatecc object

Value

summary returns the summary information about the cell composition estimate procedure and cell_counts returns the cell composition estimates

Slots

cell_counts

Examples

# This is a reduced version of the FlowSorted.Blood.450k 
# dataset available by using BiocManager::install("FlowSorted.Blood.450k),
# but for purposes of the example, we use the smaller version 
# and we set \code{demo=TRUE}. For any case outside of this example for 
# the package, you should set \code{demo=FALSE} (the default). 

dir <- system.file("data", package="methylCC")
