readGCTX(x)

## S4 method for signature 'Slinky'
readGCTX(x)

Arguments

x

a Slinky Object

Value

Matrix of expression data with rownames and colnames appropriately set. If a subset of the data is desired, subset the slinky object itself, not the resulting data matrix. That is, data <- readGCTX(x[1:50,1:500]) will be MUCH faster than ndata <- readGCTX(x)[1:50, 1:500].
