Get a class string with package information

Description

Usage

GetClass(class, packages = "Seurat")

Arguments

class	Class name
packages	A vector of packages to exclude from resulting class information

Value

A character vector with the class

Examples

SeuratDisk:::GetClass('Seurat')
SeuratDisk:::GetClass('Matrix')
