1	normQuant(A, ties = TRUE, normvector)

`A`	numeric matrix. Missing values are allowed.
`ties`	If ‘TRUE’, ties in each row of ‘A’ are treated in careful way. tied values will be normalized to the mean of the corresponding pooled quantiles.
`normvector`	numeric vector of values corresponding to the quantiles distribution to fit. Note that 'normvector' must have the same length than the number of columns of 'A'

A matrix of the same dimensions as ‘A’ containing the normalized values.

Function inpired from normalizaeQuantiles from the limma package (Gordon Smyth)
