getIntersectList: Enter a set intersection list

In plotrix/plotrix: Various Plotting Functions

Enter a set intersection list

Description

Enter the information for a set intersection display.

Usage

 getIntersectList(nelem,xnames=NULL,sep="+")

Arguments

nelem	The number of sets for which the intersections will be displayed.
xnames	The labels for the set intersections. The function creates names from combinations of the first ‘⁠nelem⁠’ capital letters if none are given.
sep	The separator to use when calling ‘⁠paste⁠’.

Details

‘⁠getIntersectList⁠’ allows the user to manually enter the counts of set intersections rather than build this information from a matrix of data. It is probably most useful for producing an intersection diagram when the counts of the intersections are already known, or when the values are proportions rather than counts as in the example.

It is very helpful when there are large numbers of elements, as the ‘⁠makeIntersectList⁠’ function runs very slowly.

Value

A list of the counts of elements in the set intersections.

Examples

 # this example is from a haplotype mapping problem submitted by Mao Jianfeng
 ## Not run: 
 hapIntList<-
  getIntersectList(3,xnames=c("hap.Pd","hap.Pt","hap.Py"))
 # enter the data as follows:
 # Number of elements in hap.Pd - 1: 27.586
 # Number of elements in hap.Pt - 1: 20.689
 # Number of elements in hap.Py - 1: 31.035
 # Number of elements in hap.Pd-hap.Pt - 1: 10.345
 # Number of elements in hap.Pd-hap.Py - 1: 10.345
 # Number of elements in hap.Pt-hap.Py - 1: 0
 # Number of elements in hap.Pd-hap.Pt-hap.Py - 1: 0
 # Total number of elements - 1: 100
 
## End(Not run)
