snpEnrichment (version 1.7.0)

Chromosome-class: Class Chromosome

Description

This class is defined to summarize the enrichment analysis about a chromosome.

Objects from the Class

chromosome is defined to build an object of class Chromosome in order to compute an enrichment analysis. A Chromosome object contains the original data, a list of SNPs, some results and resampling data. When created, an Chromosome object is "empty". readEnrichment initializes a Chromosome object with value from PLINK computation and user's files. In this step, only the fields "Data", "LD", "SNP" are filled. reSample fills the fields: Table, EnrichmentRatio, Z, PValue and Resampling of a Chromosome.

Note that if reSample is executed on an Chromosome every new resampling is added to the original ones, pre-existing statistics are erased and computed again with the new resampling set.

Extends

Class EnrichSNP, directly.
