makeBoxplotControlsPerScreen {RNAither} | R Documentation

## Generate a boxplot of the data vs. the controls for each experiment

### Description

Generates a boxplot of intensity values of negative controls, positive controls and experimental data for each experiment available in the dataset.

### Usage

    makeBoxplotControlsPerScreen(header, dataset, channel, plotTitle, plotDesign, showPlot)

### Arguments

`header` | the header of a dataset file generated with `generateDatasetFile`
`dataset` | an R data frame generated with `generateDatasetFile`
`channel` | a character string specifying the column whose values will be used for the boxplot
`plotTitle` | the plot title
`plotDesign` | 1 or 2. 1 will generate one window containing all plots, 2 will generate a series of plots.
`showPlot` | 0 or 1. 1 will open one or several plot windows in the R GUI, 0 will only save the plot(s) without opening windows.

### Value

A series of boxplots of intensity values of negative controls, positive controls and experimental data will be saved as a pdf and a png file named after the experiment name specified in the header concatenated with the `plotTitle`.

The function returns a list containing:

`plotName` | the plotname
`minOfScreens` | the number of the first experiment
`numOfScreens` | he number of the last experiment
