Description

Combine multiple objects

Usage

combine(x, y, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'SummarizedExperiment,SummarizedExperiment'
combine(x, y)

Arguments

x	Object.
y	Object.
...	Additional arguments.

Details

We're attempting to make this as strict as possible, requiring:

• Rows (genes) across objects must be identical.

Examples

data(RangedSummarizedExperiment, package = "AcidTest")

## SummarizedExperiment ====
x <- RangedSummarizedExperiment
colnames(x) <- paste0(
    "sample",
    sprintf("%02d", seq_len(ncol(x)))
)

y <- x
colnames(y) <- paste0(
    "sample",
    sprintf("%02d", seq(from = ncol(y) + 1L, to = ncol(y) * 2L))
)

## Combine the two objects.
c <- combine(x, y)
sampleData(c)
print(c)
