relectro_bak: Analysis of electrophysiological data

#' A class representing one or more .dat files
#' 
#' This class is used to read data from one or several .dat files.
#' Because the .dat files are binary files, you can't read them with the usual read functions within R.
#' If several dat files are set in an object, they are treated as though they are a single file.
#' 
#' Dat files have a very simple organisation. Each data point has 2 bytes. 
#' There is no header. The data from sample 0 appear first, then sample 1, etc.
#' If c is for channel and s is for sample, a file with 3 channel would look like this
#' s0c0, s0c1, s0c2, s1c0, s1c1, s1c2, s2c0, s2c1, s2c2, etc.
#' 
#' 
#' @slot fileNames A character vector containing the names of the files
#' @slot path The directory in which the files are located
#' @slot samples Numeric vector with the number of samples in each file.
#' @slot size Numeric vector with the size of the file in bytes
#' @slot nChannels Number of recorded channels in the dat files
