### Examples

    ## Load toy gene expression data
    data(toydata)
    ### class labels
    yy <- toydata[1,]
    ### gene expression
    xx <- toydata[-1,]
    ### Get Rankings from five different statistics
    ordinaryT <- RankingTstat(xx, yy, type="unpaired")
    baldilongT <- RankingBaldiLong(xx, yy, type="unpaired")
    samT <- RankingSam(xx, yy, type="unpaired")
    wilc <- RankingWilcoxon(xx, yy, type="unpaired")
    wilcebam <- RankingWilcEbam(xx, yy, type="unpaired")
    merged <- MergeMethods(list(ordinaryT, baldilongT, samT, wilc, wilcebam))
