boxplot,MethyLumiM-method {lumi} | R Documentation

## boxplot of a MethyLumiM object

### Description

Creating a `hdr.boxplot` of the M-value in a MethyLumiM object

### Usage

    ## S4 method for signature 'MethyLumiM'
    boxplot(x, main, logMode = TRUE, ...)

### Arguments

`x` | a `MethyLumiM-class` object
`main` | title of the boxplot
`logMode` | only works when the dataType of x is "Intensity"
`...` | optional arguments to `bwplot`.

### Details

Because the density plot of M-values usually includes two modes, using the traditional boxplot cannot accurately represent the distribution of the data. Here we use violin plot to show the density of M-values by samples

### Examples

    ## load example data
    data(example.lumiMethy)
