cleanplatformname: Clean platform name

In steveneschrich/IncrementalRMA: Affymetrix-based RMA Processing Using Fixed Parameters

Description

Return a cleaned up platform name from based on an AffyBatch cdf name.

Usage

cleanplatformname(abatch)

Arguments

abatch

AffyBatch object to extract platform name from.

Details

An AffyBatch records the CDF suitable for processing the GeneChip data. Embedded in this cdf is the name of the platform itself. This routine cleans up the cdf and trims off the "cdf" on the platform name.

The AffyBatch-class cdfName function extracts a cdf and the cleancdfname function cleans up problems with the cdf name. However, this function goes beyond this by stripping off the cdf text. This code was taken from the frma package.

Value

A string representing a cleaned up platform name.

Examples

## Not run: 
cleanplatformname(AffyBatch)

## End(Not run)
