pearsonCor {ctrlGene}

Analyzes pair-wise correlation

Description

This function performs numerous pair-wise correlation analyses of genes. Within each such correlation the Pearson correlation coefficient (r) and the probability p value are calculated.

Usage

pearsonCor(expression, ctVal = TRUE)

Arguments

expression

a matrix of expression levels. Each row corresponds to a sample and each column to a gene.

ctVal

a logical value indicating data type. If ct-values are input, ctVal=TRUE, otherwise, ctVal=FALSE.

Value

A matrix of the Pearson correlation coefficient (r) and the probability p value.
