boxplotArrays {BeadExplorer}R Documentation

Plot a series of QC boxplots

Description

Plots a series of boxplots for a BeadChip QC data

Usage

boxplotArrays(beadData, beadQC, qc, extension = "_boxplot", savegraph = NULL, width = 1200, height = 800, verbose = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

beadData Object of class beadData-class
beadQC Object of class beadQC-class
qc data.frame created by readQC
extension Character to add to the output file name
savegraph Character to specify the output type ("png","bmp" or "jpeg")
width Width in pixels of graph output
height Height in pixels of graph output
verbose Logical, provides output commentary
... arguments passed to boxplot

Details

A graph of a boxplot of QC measures is produced. The function compares QC values for the current beadData and beadQC objects to QC values from previous run analyses that have been stored in the log file (qc). The function is similar to dotplotArrays except that the data is plotted as a box plot rather than a dot plot. This function is the choice where the number of previous analyses in the log file is large.

Value

None
