R Documentation

Setter method for the `strandRule` slot in a `parameterOptions` object.

Description

Setter method for the strandRule slot in a parameterOptions object.

Usage

strandRule(object) <- value

Arguments

`object`	`object` is a `parameterOptions` object
`value`	`value` is a character string and can be one of the following ‘mean’, ‘max’, ‘sum’. This will only apply if `whichstrand` is ‘+-’. Default set at ‘max’

Details

When computing the PWM Scores and if whichstrand is set to ‘+-’, strandRule will determine how to handle both strands ( one of three options : ‘mean’, ‘max’, ‘sum’). If set to ‘mean’, the average PWM Score of both strand will be computed. If set to ‘max’, the highest PWM score between each strand will be selected and finally ‘sum’ will sum both score together. Default set at ‘max’

Value

Returns a parameterOptions object with an updated value for the strandRule slot
