Thank you for getting back to me so quickly.
I will try to make an frma data file for the ATH1/GPL198 array using
frmaTools.
Follow-up question:
Can you explain what is meant by this line in the frmaTools vignette?
"Create batch ids based on your arrays."
and then:
vectors <- makeVectorsAffyBatch(files, batch.id)
The help documentation says "batch.id" is a vector.
I understand that I need to associate CEL file names with batches, but I
don't understand how the structure of "batch.id" allows me to do this.
What should "batch.id" contain and how do I relate it to "files" ?
