This generic function returns an official or standard chip/platform name.
Usage
chipName(object)
Arguments
object
See showMethods("chipName"), but generally
object will be a subclass of PkgSeed.
Value
A character vector of length one giving a standard name for the
platform.
Details
The idea is that the input files can be used to determine a standard
name for each platform. For example, the method for
AffySNPPDInfoPkgSeed objects reads the header of the CDF file
to extract a name.
