format_dilutions: Format dilutions

In PvSTATEM: Reading, Quality Control and Preprocessing of MBA (Multiplex Bead Assay) Data

Format dilutions

Description

The function counts the number of times each dilution factor appears and sorts them in descending order based on the corresponding dilution values. The output is a string that lists the dilution factors and their counts in the format ⁠count x dilution_factor⁠. If the dilutions vector looks like c("1/2", "1/2", "1/2", "1/3", "1/3", "1/4"), the output will be "3x1/2, 2x1/3, 1x1/4".

Usage

format_dilutions(dilutions, dilution_values, sample_types)

Arguments

dilutions	A vector of dilution factors, taken from plate object.
dilution_values	A vector of dilution values corresponding to the dilution factors, taken from plate object. Used only for sorting purposes.
sample_types	A vector of sample types taken from plate object.

Value

A formatted string that lists the dilution factors and their counts. Returns NULL if dilutions is NULL.
