edata_replace {pmartR}

Replace Values Equal to x with y

Description

This function finds all values of x in the e_data element of omicsData and replaces them with y

Usage

edata_replace(omicsData, x, y, threshold = NULL)

Arguments

omicsData

an object of the class 'pepData', 'proData', 'metabData', 'lipidData', or 'nmrData' created by as.pepData, as.proData, as.metabData, as.lipidData, or as.nmrData, respectively.

x

value to be replaced, usually numeric or NA

y

replacement value, usually numeric or NA

threshold

Positive numeric value. Observed values below this threshold will be replaced by 'y' (in addition to all 'x' values).

Details

This function is often used to replace any 0 values in peptide, protein, metabolite, or lipid data with NA's. For omicsData on the abundance scale, when the omicsData object is created, any 0's in e_data are automatically converted to NA's. For omicsData on the count scale (e.g. seqData objects), when the omicsData object is created, any NA's in e_data are automatically converted to 0's.

Value

data object of the same class as omicsData
