Hi,

You would get better response if you post at Bioconductor mailing list.

Hi

I am trying to do some data analysis using R and Bioconductor.  I have a
function to read my data called "ReadAffyData" and a function to plot the
data called "preqc".  I want to know if there is any way I can extract
information (read: Data) from the ReadAffyData function into preqc in order
to produce plots? I have not completely understood the inheritance in R and
I am getting errors similar to the one below. I am new to R and could do
with any help in this aspect!

ReadAffyData <- function( filename ) {

        require(affy)
        require(annotate)

        Cov <- read.table( filename, sep="\t", header=1, quote="",
comment="" )
    if( ! all( c( "Filename", "Label", "Repl", "Trt" ) %in% colnames( Cov )
) )
        {
        stop( "Missing mandatory column" )
    }

        Cov <- Cov[order(Cov$Trt),]
        i <- table(Cov$Trt)
        Cov$Repl <- unlist( lapply( i, function( j ) 1:j ) )
        Cov$Label <- paste( as.character( Cov$Trt ), Cov$Repl, sep=":" )
        rownames(Cov) <- as.character(Cov$Label)

        tmp1 <- colnames( Cov )
    tmp2 <- rep( "", length( Cov ) )

        for( i in 1:length( tmp2 ) )
        {
        tmp2[i] <- paste( sort( unique( as.character( Cov[,i] ) ) ),
collapse="/" )
    }

        labelDescription <- data.frame( labelDescription=tmp2 )

    rownames( labelDescription ) <- tmp1
    tmp <- new( "AnnotatedDataFrame", data=Cov,
varMetadata=labelDescription)

        Data <- ReadAffy( sampleNames=as.character( Cov$Label
),phenoData=tmp, verbose=TRUE )
}

preQC <- function(name){
ReadAffyData(name)
plotDensity( log2( pm( Data ) ), xlab="Log2( Intensity )", ylab="Density",
main="Raw(PM)")
}

preQC("cov.txt")
