## Helper methods for the ClusterFunction class

### Description

This is a collection of helper methods for the ClusterExperiment class.

### Usage

    ## S4 method for signature 'character'
    requiredArgs(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'ClusterFunction'
    requiredArgs(object, genericOnly = FALSE)

    ## S4 method for signature 'list'
    requiredArgs(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'character'
    requiredArgs(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'character'
    requiredArgs(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'factor'
    requiredArgs(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'ClusterFunction'
    algorithmType(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'character'
    algorithmType(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'factor'
    algorithmType(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'list'
    algorithmType(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'ClusterFunction'
    inputType(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'list'
    inputType(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'character'
    inputType(object)

    ## S4 method for signature 'factor'
    inputType(object)

### Arguments

`object` | input to the method, either a `ClusterFunction` class or a character describing a built-in `ClusterFunction` object. Can also be a `list` of `ClusterFunction` objects, in which case the list must have names for each function.
`genericOnly` | logical If TRUE, return only the generic required arguments (i.e. those required by the algorithm type) and not the arguments specific to that clustering found in the slot `requiredArgs`. If FALSE both sets of arguments are returned.

### Details

Note that when subsetting the data, the dendrogram information and the co-clustering matrix are lost.

### Value

`requiredArgs` returns a list of the required args of a function (via a call to `requiredArgs`)

`algorithmType` returns a character value giving the type of clustering function ("01" or "K")

`inputType` returns a character value giving the input type of the object
