toW4M {ropls} | R Documentation

## Exporting ExpressionSet instance into 3 tabulated files.

### Description

The 3 .tsv files are written with the indicated `file` prefix, and '_dataMatrix.tsv', '_sampleMetadata.tsv', and '_variableMetadata.tsv' suffices, respectively. Note that the `dataMatrix` is transposed before export (e.g., the samples are written column wise in the 'dataMatrix.tsv' exported file).

### Usage

    toW4M(eset, ...)

### Arguments
