Plots the density of positive and negative controls (if applicable) for all controls contained in the dataset.
controlDensity(header, dataset, channel, plotTitle, showPlot, supHisto)
header |
the header of a dataset file generated with generateDatasetFile |
dataset |
an R data frame generated with generateDatasetFile |
channel |
a character string specifying the name of the column containing the values for computing the density, e.g. "SigIntensity" |
plotTitle |
the plot title |
showPlot |
0 or 1. 1 will open one or several plot windows in the R GUI, 0 will only save the plot(s) without opening windows |
supHisto |
