exptInfo

Class: bioma.ExpressionSet
Namespace: bioma

Retrieve or set experiment information in ExpressionSet object

Syntax

MIAMEObj = exptInfo(ESObj)
NewESObj = exptInfo(ESObj, NewMIAMEObj)


Description

MIAMEObj = exptInfo(ESObj) returns a MIAME object containing experiment information from an ExpressionSet object.

NewESObj = exptInfo(ESObj, NewMIAMEObj) replaces the MIAME object in ESObj, an ExpressionSet object, with NewMIAMEObj, a new MIAME object, and returns NewESObj, a new ExpressionSet object.

Input Arguments

ESObj	Object of the bioma.ExpressionSet class.
NewMIAMEObj	Object of the bioma.data.MIAME class.

Output Arguments

MIAMEObj	Object of the bioma.data.MIAME class.
NewESObj	Object of the bioma.ExpressionSet class, returned after replacing the MIAME object.

Examples

Construct an ExpressionSet object, ESObj, as described in the Examples section of the bioma.ExpressionSet class reference page. Retrieve the MIAME object stored in the ExpressionSet object:

% Retrieve the MIAME object
NewMIAMEObj = exptInfo(ESObj);
