FindElement: Find an element in a data structure

In IntClust: Integration of Multiple Data Sets with Clustering Techniques

Description

The function FindElement is used internally in the PreparePathway function but might come in handy for other uses as well. Given the name of an object, the function searches for that object in the data structure and extracts it. When multiple objects have the same name, all are extracted.

Usage

FindElement(what = NULL, object = NULL, element = list())

Arguments

what	A character string indicating which object to look for. Default is NULL.
object	The data structure to look into. Only the classes data frame and list are supported. Default is NULL.
element	Not to be specified by the user.

Value

The returned value is a list with an element for each object found. The element contains everything the object contained in the original data structure.

Examples

data(fingerprintMat)
data(targetMat)
data(geneMat)

MCF7_F = Cluster(fingerprintMat,type="data",distmeasure="tanimoto",normalize=FALSE,
method=NULL,clust="agnes",linkage="flexible",gap=FALSE,maxK=55,StopRange=FALSE)
MCF7_T = Cluster(targetMat,type="data",distmeasure="tanimoto",normalize=FALSE,
method=NULL,clust="agnes",linkage="flexible",gap=FALSE,maxK=55,StopRange=FALSE)

MCF7_DiffGenes_FandT10=DiffGenes(list(MCF7_F,MCF7_T),Selection=NULL,geneExpr=geneMat,
nrclusters=7,method="limma",sign=0.05,top=10,fusionsLog = TRUE, weightclust = TRUE, 
names = NULL)

Find=FindElement(what='TopDE',object=MCF7_DiffGenes_FandT10)
