organizeAsListOfRepl: (re)organize data of (3-dim) array as list of replicates

In wrMisc: Analyze Experimental High-Throughput (Omics) Data

(re)organize data of (3-dim) array as list of replicates

Description

Organize array of all data ('arrIn', long table) into list of (replicate-)arrays (of similar type/layout) based on dimension number 'byDim' of 'arrIn' (eg 2nd or 3rd dim). Argument inspNChar defines the number of characters to consider, so if the beginning of names is the same they will be separated as list of multiple arrays. Default will search for '_' separator or trim from end if not found in the relevant dimnames

Usage

organizeAsListOfRepl(
  arrIn,
  inspNChar = 0,
  byDim = 3,
  silent = TRUE,
  debug = FALSE,
  callFrom = NULL
)

Arguments

arrIn	(array) main input
inspNChar	(interger) if inspNChar=0 the array-names (2nd dim of 'arrIn') will be cut before last '_'
byDim	(integer, length=1) dimension number along which data will be split in separate elements (considering the first inspNChar characters)
silent	(logical) suppress messages
debug	(logical) additional messages for debugging
callFrom	(character) allow easier tracking of messages produced

Value

This function returns a list of arrays (typically 1st and 2nd dim for specific genes/objects, 3rd for different measures associated with)

Examples

arr1 <- array(1:24,dim=c(4,3,2),dimnames=list(c(LETTERS[1:4]),
  paste("col",1:3,sep=""), c("ch1","ch2")))
organizeAsListOfRepl(arr1)
