In ribiosIO: Input/Output Utilities of the 'ribios' Suite

Column bind (cbind) two GctMatrix objects

Description

Column bind (cbind) two GctMatrix objects

Usage

cbindGct(
  gctMatrix1,
  gctMatrix2,
  feature = c("union", "intersection"),
  missingValue = 0
)

Arguments

gctMatrix1	The first object
gctMatrix2	The second object
feature	What happens if the set of the features in both objects differ? Either union or intersection is possible.
missingValue	Missing values, NA or numeric values (such as 0) are accepted

Value

A larger matrix, with gctMatrix1 on the left and gctMatrix2 on the right, with merged features and descriptions.

Examples

m1 <- matrix(1:6, nrow=3, dimnames=list(sprintf("G%d", 1:3), sprintf("S%d", 1:2)))
m2 <- matrix(c(9:7, 12:10), nrow=3, dimnames=list(sprintf("G%d", 3:1), sprintf("S%d", 3:4)))
gm1 <- GctMatrix(m1, desc=sprintf("Gene%d", 1:3))
gm2 <- GctMatrix(m2, desc=sprintf("Gene%d", 3:1))
gm1
gm2
gm12 <- cbindGct(gm1, gm2)
gm12
m3 <- matrix(13:18, nrow=3, dimnames=list(sprintf("G%d", 2:4), sprintf("S%d", 5:6)))
gm3 <- GctMatrix(m3, desc=sprintf("Gene%d", 2:4))
gm3
gm123Intersect <- cbindGct(gm12, gm3, feature="intersect")
print(gm123Intersect, showAll=TRUE)
gm123Union <- cbindGct(gm12, gm3, feature="union")
print(gm123Union, showAll=TRUE)
gm123UnionNA <- cbindGct(gm12, gm3, feature="union", missingValue = NA)
print(gm123UnionNA)
