View source: R/buildData.R

Description

A constructor function which takes an Affymetrix SNP6 cychp.txt (or cnchp.txt) file as input, possibly in a compressed format (.bz2 or .gz).
These files are exported from Chromosome Analysis Suite (ChAS) or Affymetrix Power Tools (APT) (see the References section).

readAffySNP6(filePath, sampleName = NA, labName = NA,
    useProbes=c("snp", "cn", "all"), genome = c("hg19", "hg18", "hg38"),
    ploidy = 2, verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

filePath

: string. A path to an Affymetrix SNP6 cychp.txt (or cnchp.txt) file.

sampleName

: string. A sample Id. Optional.

labName

: string. A lab Id. Optional.

useProbes

: character. What probes to consider. Possible choices are SNP probes only ("snp", default), CN probes only ("cn"), or all the probes ("all").

genome

: string. The genome build to use. Supported genomes are hg18, hg19 (default), and hg38.

ploidy

: numeric. A priori ploidy value, when known, to adjust the estimation of copy numbers. Default is 2.

verbose

: logical. When TRUE (default), progress is printed.

Details

When available in the file preambule, several array information will be stored in Object@info: scanning date, grid version,...
Any other useful item can be stored using setInfo.
