## Experiment Data: SpikeList Example

### Description

This `SpikeList` object contains all the spikes in dataset `RG`.It is generated by the function
`read.spike` from `RG` and user-specified concentraion file in the CALIB package.

### Usage

    data(spike)

### Format

`spike` is an `SpikeList` object containing the following list components: $R,$G,$Rb,$Gb,
$RArea,$GArea,$RConc,$GConc and $genes. It represents two microarrays and 600 spikes, including 480 calibration controls, 96 ratio controls and 24 negative controls.
