calcAttribMeans: Calculate average values by attribute

In jstaf/actmon: A tool for parsing output produced by TriKinetics' Drosophila Activity Monitor.

Description

This function is used to calculate the average values (sleep/activity/whatever) of your data by an attribute. For instance, this could be used to calculate the average sleep values for each genotype.

Usage

calcAttribMeans(obj, attribute, ..., vector)

Arguments

obj	A valid DAM S4 object (created by newExperiment)
attribute	Which attribute you would like to use to analyze your data by, e.g. "genotype"
vector	A vector of values to use for mean calculation instead of using those in actual DAM object obj.

Value

A matrix of values with the average and standard error for each attribute category

Examples

sleep <- dropDead(DAM_DD)
sleep <- calcSleep(sleep)
calcAttribMeans(sleep, "genotype")
