In Bioconductor/genefilter: genefilter: methods for filtering genes from high-throughput experiments

Creates a first FALSE exiting function from the list of filter functions it is given.

Description

This function creates a function that takes a single argument. The filtering functions are bound in the environment of the returned function and are applied sequentially to the argument of the returned function. When the first filter function evaluates to FALSE the function returns FALSE otherwise it returns TRUE.

Usage

filterfun(...)

Arguments
