mach2databel: converts MACH-imputed files to DatABEL (filevector) format

In GenABEL: genome-wide SNP association analysis

Description

This function converts mach-imputed files to DatABEL (filevector) format. After conversion, two files (outfile.fvi and outfile.fvd), corresponding to single filevector object, will appear on the disk; 'databel-class' object connected to these files will be returned to R

Usage

  mach2databel(imputedgenofile, mlinfofile, outfile,
    isprobfile = FALSE, dataOutType = "FLOAT")

Arguments

imputedgenofile	MACH mldose (or mlprob) file name
mlinfofile	MACH mlinfo file name
outfile	output file name
isprobfile	whether imputedgenofile is a prob-file (default is FALSE, that is dose-file assumed)
dataOutType	the output data type, either "FLOAT" or "DOUBLE" (or other DatABEL/filevector type)

Value

databel-class object
