remove.samples,RnBSet-method: remove.samples-methods

Description

Removes the specified samples from the dataset.

Usage

"remove.samples"(object, samplelist)
"remove.samples"(object, samplelist)
"remove.samples"(object, samplelist)

Arguments

object

Dataset of interest.

samplelist

List of samples to be removed in the form of a logical, integer or character vector. If this parameter is logical, it is not recycled; its length must be equal to the number of samples in object. If it is integer or character, it must list only samples that exist in the dataset. Specifying sample indices larger than the number of samples, or non-existent sample identifiers results in an error.

Value

The modified dataset.
