extractLocsFile {BeadDataPackR} | R Documentation |
Provides a mechanism to extract the information from the original .locs file from a compressed .bab file, without the need to extract the intensity or probe ID values.
extractLocsFile(inputFile, path = ".")
inputFile |
The name of the .bab file to be read in. |
path |
Path to where the input file can be found. Default is the current working directory. |
A matrix with two columns (four if two-channel data) containing the X and Y values of the bead centre coordinates supplied in the original .locs file. For two-channel data the first two columns contain the coordinates from the green channel, with the red channel held in columns three and four.
