#' Access and Edit Response of an \code{OmicsReg} or \code{OmicsReg} Object
#'
#' @description "Get" or "Set" the values of the \code{response_num} or
#'    \code{response_fact} slots of an object of class \code{OmicsReg} or
#'    \code{OmicsReg}, respectively.
#'
#' @param object An object of class \code{\link{OmicsReg-class}} or
#'    \code{\link{OmicsCateg-class}}.
#' @param ... Dots for additional internal arguments (currently unused).
#'
#' @return The "get" functions return the objects in the slots specified:
#'    \code{getResponse} returns the \code{response_num} vector from objects of
#'    class \code{OmicsReg} and the \code{response_fact} vector from objects of
#'    class \code{OmicsCateg}. These functions can extract these values from
#'    any valid object of those classes.
#'
#'    The "set" functions enable the user to edit or replace the object in the
#'    \code{response_num} slot for any \code{OmicsReg} object or
#'    \code{response_fact} slot for any \code{OmicsCateg} object, provided that
#'    the new values do not violate the validity check of such an object. See
#'    "Details" for more information.
#'
#' @details These functions can be useful to set or extract the response vector
#'    from an object of class \code{OmicsReg} or \code{OmicsReg}. However, we
#'    recommend that users simply create a new, valid object instead of
#'    modifying an existing one. The validity of edited objects is checked with
#'    their respective \code{\link{ValidOmicsCateg}} or
#'    \code{\link{ValidOmicsReg}} function. Because both classes have a
#'    \code{response} slot, we set this method for the parent class,
#'    \code{\link{OmicsPathway-class}}.
