cbind: Combine objects by rows or columns
In nturaga/BiocGenerics: S4 generic functions for Bioconductor

Description Usage Arguments Value See Also Examples

cbind and rbind take one or more objects and combine them by columns or rows, respectively.

NOTE: This man page is for the cbind and rbind S4 generic functions defined in the BiocGenerics package. See ?base::cbind for the default methods (defined in the base package). Bioconductor packages can define specific methods for objects (typically vector-like or matrix-like) not supported by the default methods.

1 2	cbind(..., deparse.level=1) rbind(..., deparse.level=1)

`...`	One or more vector-like or matrix-like objects. These can be given as named arguments.
`deparse.level`	See `?base::cbind` for a description of this argument.

See ?base::cbind for the value returned by the default methods.

Specific methods defined in Bioconductor packages will typically return an object of the same class as the input objects.

base::cbind for the default cbind and rbind methods.
showMethods for displaying a summary of the methods defined for a given generic function.
selectMethod for getting the definition of a specific method.
cbind,DataFrame-method in the S4Vectors package for an example of a specific cbind method (defined for DataFrame objects).
BiocGenerics for a summary of all the generics defined in the BiocGenerics package.
