as.data.frame.linkdat: linkdat to data.frame conversion

Description

Convert a linkdat object to data.frame for pretty printing.

Usage

# S3 method for linkdat
as.data.frame(x, ..., famid=F, markers=seq_len(x$nMark), alleles=NULL, 
              missing=NULL, singleCol=FALSE, sep="")

Arguments

x

a linkdat object.

famid

a logical indicating if the family identifier should be included as the first column.

markers

a numeric indicating which markers should be included/printed.

alleles

a character containing allele names, e.g. alleles=c("A","B").

missing

the character (of length 1) used for missing alleles. Defaults to "0".

singleCol

a logical: Should the two alleles for each marker be pasted into one column or kept in separate columns?

sep

a single character to be used as allele separator if singleCol=TRUE.

…

further arguments (not used).

Value

A data.frame.

Details

This function is mainly intended for pretty-printing linkdat objects (for instance it is called by print.linkdat). For direct manipulation of the pedigree and/or marker matrices, it is better to use as.matrix.linkdat.

print.linkdat, as.matrix.linkdat

Examples

# NOT RUN {
x = linkdat(toyped)
x

# Printing x as above is equivalent to:
as.data.frame(x, sep = "/", missing = "-", singleCol = TRUE)
# }
