unlist: Flatten lists extended to any class

In genomaths/MethylIT: Methylation Analysis Based on Signal Detection

Flatten lists extended to any class

Description

Given a list 'x' of R objects from the same class and same format, unlist simplifies it to produce a new R object which contains all the initial components which in 'x' object.

Usage

unlist(x, recursive = TRUE, use.names = TRUE)

Arguments

x	Any list R object.
recursive	Logical. Should unlisting be applied to list components of x?
use.names	Logical. Should names be preserved?

Details

This is a method to extend unlist generic function to handle any list of objects from the same class.

Examples

gr1 <-GRanges(seqnames = 'chr2', ranges = IRanges(3, 6), strand = '+',
score = 5L, GC = 0.45)

gr2 <- GRanges(seqnames = c('chr1', 'chr1'), ranges = IRanges(c(7,13),
width = 3), strand = c('+', '-'), score = 3:4, GC = c(0.3, 0.5))

gr3 <- GRanges(seqnames = c('chr1', 'chr2'),
ranges = IRanges(c(1, 4), c(3, 9)), strand = c('-', '-'),
score = c(6L, 2L), GC = c(0.4, 0.1))

grl <- list('gr1' = gr1, 'gr2' = gr2, 'gr3' = gr3)
base::unlist(grl) # The default unlist does not work
unlist(grl)
