countMutTypes {mutSignatures}

Count Mutation Types.

Description

Analyze a table (data.frame) including mutation counts. Count and aggregate Count Mutation Types. If multiple samples are included in the same table, results are aggregated by samples.

Usage

countMutTypes(mutTable, mutType_colName = "mutType", sample_colName = NULL)

Arguments

mutTable

data.frame including mutation types and an optional sample ID column

mutType_colName

string, name of the column storing mutTypes

sample_colName

string, name of the column storing sample identifiers. Can be NULL

Details

This function is part of the user-interface set of tools included in mutSignatures. This is an exported function.

Value

a mutationCounts-class object
