In sydneycytometry/Spectre: A computational toolkit in R for the integration, exploration, and analysis of high-dimensional single-cell cytometry data.

Description

do.add.cols

Usage

do.add.cols(dat, base.col, add.dat, add.by, rmv.ext)

Arguments

dat	NO DEFAULT. A data.table (or data.frame) containing the data to have new values added to.
base.col	NO DEFAULT. Name of the column containing values that new values will be matched to.
add.dat	NO DEFAULT. A data table of new values to embed as a new columns, with one column containing values used for matching with the target data.table.
add.by	NO DEFAULT. Character, name of the column in add.dat that is used for matching to the taret dataset.
rmv.ext	DEFAULTS TO FALSE. Logical, can be TRUE or FALSE. Removes a ".csv" or ".fcs" extension from a the 'match.to' vector – especially useful if 'match.to' is a list of sample names that end in .csv or .fcs.

cell.dat <- do.add.cols(dat = Spectre::demo.asinh,
                        base.col = "FileName",
                        add.dat = add.dt,
                        add.by = "Files")
