createUniqueCdf.AffymetrixCdfFile: Creates a unique-cell version of the CDF

Description

In some cases, single probes map to multiple genome locations. In cases where you may later want to store a probe estimate (e.g. a probe effect or a residual), you will not be able to store more than one per cell. The unique CDF facilitates this by making the cell indices unique (essentially copying the multimapping probes).

Usage

## S3 method for class 'AffymetrixCdfFile':
createUniqueCdf(this, chipType=getChipType(this), tags="unique", sep=",", path=NULL, units=NULL, ..., ram=NULL, verbose=TRUE)

Arguments

chipType
The chip type of the new CDF.
tags
Tags added to the chip type of the new CDF.
sep
A string separating the chip type and the tags string.
path
The path where to store the new CDF file.
...
Additional arguments passed to writeCdf.
ram
A double saying if more or less units should be converted per chunk. A smaller value uses less memory.
verbose
