\begin{Description}\relax
This class defines a structure to store the results of relevance network analysis,
using a method that compare the correlation values between pairs of
genes in two different sample types by a
\emph{z}-transformation. Objects of this type are generated calling
the function \code{\LinkA{relNetworkM}{relNetworkM}}.
\end{Description}
\begin{Details}\relax
Objects of this class are produced by calling the functions
\code{\LinkA{relNetworkM}{relNetworkM}} over an object of class \code{\LinkA{maiges}{maiges}}
to search for pairs of genes with altered correlation values between
two sample types tested.
\end{Details}
\begin{Section}{Slots}
\describe{
\item[\code{W}:] numeric matrix giving the W values of the genes
tested. This information is useful for doing plots representing the
correlation coefficient values.
\item[\code{Corr1}:] numerical square matrix that store the
correlation coefficient values between all pair of genes tested
for the first sample type.
\item[\code{Corr2}:] numerical matrix similar to the previous one,
storing the correlation values for the second sample type.
\item[\code{DifP}:] numerical matrix that store the p-value for the
comparison between the correlation values of both sample types tested.
\item[\code{types}:] character vector giving the names of sample
types tested.
\item[\code{Slabel}:] string with the sample label used to define
the two sample types tested.
\item[\code{Date}:] character string giving the date and time that
the object was generated.
\item[\code{V.info}:] list containg three characters. The first one is
a string containing the R version used when the object was
created. The second is a char vector with base packages and the
last one is another char vector with additional packages and
version numbers.
