decode: Decode column data that uses run-length encoding

In steinbaugh/S4Transformer: Coercion methods for biological data

Description

The Rle class is a general container for storing an atomic vector that is stored in a run-length encoding format. It is based on the rle function from the base package.

Usage

decode(x, ...)

## S4 method for signature 'DataFrame'
decode(x)

## S4 method for signature 'Ranges'
decode(x)

## S4 method for signature 'SummarizedExperiment'
decode(x)

Arguments

x	Object.
...	Additional arguments.

Value

Modified object. Columns will be decoded and no longer Rle class.

Examples

data(RangedSummarizedExperiment, package = "acidtest")
rowData <- SummarizedExperiment::rowData

## DataFrame ====
df <- rowData(RangedSummarizedExperiment)
lapply(df, class)
x <- decode(df)
lapply(x, class)

## SummarizedExperiment ====
## This works on rowData and colData.
x <- decode(RangedSummarizedExperiment)
lapply(rowData(x), class)
