Meta data is some descriptions about the experiment,
like the experiment type ("glycomics" or "glycoproteomics"),
or the glycan type ("N", "O-GalNAc", "O-GlcNAc", "O-Man", "O-Fuc", or "O-Glc").
Usage
get_meta_data(exp, x = NULL)
get_exp_type(exp)
get_glycan_type(exp)
Arguments
- exp
An experiment().
- x
A string, the name of the meta data field.
If NULL (default), a list of all meta data fields will be returned.
Value
The value of the meta data field. If the field does not exist,
NULL will be returned.
