GenomicRangesList-class: GenomicRangesList objects
Description
A GenomicRangesList is a List
of GenomicRanges. It is a virtual class;
SimpleGenomicRangesList is the basic implementation. The
subclass GRangesList provides special behavior
and is particularly efficient for storing a large number of elements.
Constructor
-
GenomicRangesList(...): Constructs a
SimpleGenomicRangesList with elements
taken from the arguments in .... If the only argument is a list,
the elements are taken from that list.
Coercion
-
as(from, "GenomicRangesList"): Supported from types
include:
- RangedDataList
- Each element of
from is coerced to
a GenomicRanges.
-
as(from, "RangedDataList"): Supported from types
include:
- GenomicRangesList
- Each element of
from is coerced to
a RangedData.
See Also
GRangesList, which differs from
SimpleGenomicRangesList in that the GRangesList treats
its elements as single, compound ranges, particularly in overlap
operations. SimpleGenomicRangesList is just a barebones list
for now, without that compound semantic.
