_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     'annotatedDataFrameFrom' is a convenience for creating
     'AnnotatedDataFrame' objects.

_M_e_t_h_o_d_s:

     Use the method with 'annotatedDataFrameFrom(object, byrow=FALSE,
     ...)'; the argument 'byrow' _must_ be specified.

     '_s_i_g_n_a_t_u_r_e(_o_b_j_e_c_t="_a_s_s_a_y_D_a_t_a")' This method creates an
          'AnnotatedDataFrame' using sample (when 'byrow=FALSE') or
          feature ('byrow=TRUE') names and dimensions of an 'AssayData'
          object as a template.

     '_s_i_g_n_a_t_u_r_e(_o_b_j_e_c_t="_m_a_t_r_i_x")' This method creates an
          'AnnotatedDataFrame' using column (when 'byrow=FALSE') or row
          ('byrow=TRUE') names and dimensions of a 'matrix' object as a
          template.

     '_s_i_g_n_a_t_u_r_e(_o_b_j_e_c_t="_N_U_L_L")' This method (called with 'NULL' as the
          object) creates an empty 'AnnotatedDataFrame'; provides
          'dimLabels' based on value of 'byrow'.
