Examples

# Get the path for the scaling provided in this R package
example.molecular.data.dir <- paste0(path.package('iSubGen'),'/exdata/');

# Example #1: reading scaling factors for a single data type
scaling.factors <- read.scaling.factors(example.molecular.data.dir, 'cna');

# Example #2: reading scaling factors for multiple data types
scaling.factors <- read.scaling.factors(example.molecular.data.dir, c('cna','snv','methy'));
