R Documentation

Given an expressionset, sanitize the gene information data.

Description

Given an expressionset, sanitize the gene information data.

Usage

sanitize_expt_fData(
  expt,
  columns = NULL,
  na_value = "notapplicable",
  lower = TRUE,
  punct = TRUE,
  factorize = "heuristic",
  max_levels = NULL,
  spaces = FALSE,
  numbers = NULL,
  numeric = FALSE
)

Arguments

`expt`	Input expressionset.
`columns`	Set of columns to sanitize, otherwise all of them.
`na_value`	Fill in NA with this.
`lower`	sanitize capitalization.
`punct`	Remove punctuation?
`factorize`	Convert columns to factors? When set to 'heuristic' this tries out as.factor and sees if the number of levels is silly.
`max_levels`	The definition of 'silly' above.
`spaces`	Allow spaces in the data?
`numbers`	Sanitize number formats (e.g. 1.000.000,0 vs. 1,000,000.0)
`numeric`	Set columns to numeric when possible?
