GetReplicate: Generate Replicate Numbers for Plate Data

In QuICSeedR: Analyze Data for Fluorophore-Assisted Seed Amplification Assays

Generate Replicate Numbers for Plate Data

Description

This function takes a plate layout and generates a corresponding matrix of replicate numbers for each sample.

Usage

GetReplicate(plate)

Arguments

plate

A matrix or data frame representing the plate layout, where each cell contains a sample identifier or NA for empty wells.

Value

A data frame with the same dimensions as the input plate, where each cell contains the replicate number for the corresponding sample in the input plate.

Note

• Sample identifiers are converted to character type before processing.

• The function assumes that the input plate is organized such that replicate samples are encountered sequentially.

• The output maintains the column names from the input plate.

Examples

plate <- matrix(
  c("A", "B", "C",
    "A", "B", NA,
    "A", "C", "D"),
  nrow = 3, byrow = TRUE
)

replicates <- GetReplicate(plate)
print(replicates)
