GenomicRangesList-class: GenomicRangesList objects
Description
A GenomicRangesList
is a List
of GenomicRanges
. It is a virtual class;
SimpleGenomicRangesList
is the basic implementation. The
subclass GRangesList
provides special behavior
and is particularly efficient for storing a large number of elements.
Constructor
-
GenomicRangesList(...)
: Constructs a
SimpleGenomicRangesList
with elements
taken from the arguments in .... If the only argument is a list,
the elements are taken from that list.
Coercion
-
as(from, "GenomicRangesList")
: Supported from
types
include:
- RangedDataList
- Each element of
from
is coerced to
a GenomicRanges
.
-
as(from, "RangedDataList")
: Supported from
types
include:
- GenomicRangesList
- Each element of
from
is coerced to
a RangedData
.
See Also
GRangesList
, which differs from
SimpleGenomicRangesList
in that the GRangesList
treats
its elements as single, compound ranges, particularly in overlap
operations. SimpleGenomicRangesList
is just a barebones list
for now, without that compound semantic.
