write_afni-methods: writeAFNI

In neuroconductor-releases/oro.nifti: Rigorous - 'NIfTI' + 'ANALYZE' + 'AFNI' : Input / Output

Description

This function saves a afni-class object to HEAD/BRIK pair in AFNI format.

Usage

writeAFNI(nim, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'afni'
writeAFNI(nim, fname, verbose = FALSE, warn = -1)

Arguments

nim	is an object of class afni.
...	Additional variables defined by the method.
fname	is the path and file name to save the AFNI file (.HEAD/BRIK) without the suffix.
verbose	is a logical variable (default = FALSE) that allows text-based feedback during execution of the function.
warn	is a number to regulate the display of warnings (default = -1). See options for more details.

Details

The writeAFNI function utilizes the internal writeBin and writeLines command to write information to header/binary file pair.

Current acceptable data types include

INT16"

DT SIGNED SHORT (16 bits per voxel)

FLOAT32"

DT FLOAT (32 bits per voxel)

"COMPLEX128"

DT COMPLEX (128 bits per voxel)

Value

Nothing.

Methods

nim = "afni"
