| mergelist {happy} | R Documentation |
mergelist() is a convenience function which creates a list object suitable for use with mergematrices()
mergelist( strains, alleles )
strains |
a character vector of strain names |
alleles |
a character matrix with one row of strain/allele combinations. There must be a named column in the matrix corresponding to every strain name in strains. The value of the element is the allele for that strain |
a list of lists of strains describing how the
strains are grouped together. For instance
mergelist <- list( A=list('AJ', 'BALB', 'AKR'),
T=list('RIII','I', 'DBA', 'C57', 'C3H') )
divides the strains into two groups corresponding to the alleles A,
T (the allele names are not important).
It is essential that the all strain names match all the values in
strains.
The object should be used as an input parameter to mergematrices()
