count2FPKM {RNAAgeCalc} | R Documentation

## Converting gene expression data from raw count to FPKM

### Description

This function converts gene expression data from raw count to FPKM by using `getRPKM`

### Usage

    count2FPKM(rawcount, genelength = NULL, idtype = "SYMBOL")

### Arguments

`rawcount` | a matrix or data frame which contains gene expression counts data.
`genelength` | gene length in bp. The size of 'genelength' should be equal to the number of rows in 'rawcount'. This argument is optional. If not provided, gene length is obtained from the internal database.
`idtype` | a string which indicates the gene id type in rawcount matrix. It should be one of "SYMBOL", "ENSEMBL", "ENTREZID" or "REFSEQ". Default is "SYMBOL".

### Value

a data frame contains FPKM.
