[BioC] heatmap-exprs error

[Wolfgang Huber]

Dear Xiayu

while it is quite legitimate to consider this an error, it in fact happens by design. limma's EList class does not support the 'exprs' accessor. You could try

 library("limma")
 class ? EList

I selected those genes with low adjusted p values, and use their expression information to draw a heatmap. It turned out that the exprs function does not work. Really do not know how to solve this. Please help me out! Thanks a lot!
