addAssay: add a matrix-valued assay to a MultiAssayExperiment instance

In vjcitn/ogttMetrics: various metrics for oral glucose tolerance tests

Description

add a matrix-valued assay to a MultiAssayExperiment instance

Usage

addAssay(mae, mat, assayname, allowGaps = FALSE)

Arguments

mae	MultiAssayExperiment instance
mat	a matrix with rownames assigned; if colnames absent will be taken from rownames(colData(mae))
assayname	character string used to name assay in ExperimentList of mae
allowGaps	logical, should addAssay fail if there are gaps between sample labels for new assay and rownames of colData

Examples

data(obaSamp)
lit = subsetByAssay(obaSamp, c("glucose", "insulin"))
d = dim(ee <- experiments(lit)$glucose)
dum = matrix(rnorm(prod(d)), nrow=d[1])
rownames(dum) = rownames(ee)
colnames(dum) = colnames(ee)
addAssay(lit, dum, "dum")
