This function is used by the pdat_ functions to “clean up” particular datasets. Examples of the description in pdat_CRC are missing, conflicting, and duplicated. This function is made accessible to the user who may wish to write their own pdat_ functions.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
datadir <- paste0(system.file("extdata", package="canprot"), "/expression/CRC/")
dataset <- "STK+15"
# an excerpt from pdat_CRC() for dataset="STK+15"
dat <- read.csv(paste0(datadir, "STK+15.csv"), as.is=TRUE)
dat <- remove_entries(dat, is.na(dat$uniprot), dataset, "missing")
# the above prints "STK+15: dropping 3 missing proteins"
# }
