## Class "epheno"

### Description

Object obtained with the ExpressionPhenoTest function. Contains FC, HR and pvals from testing expression values of each gene against phenotypic variables.

### Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form `new("epheno", assayData, phenoData, featureData, exprs, ...)`.

### Slots

`p.adjust.method`:

  Object of class `"character"` containing the multiple testing adjustment method used (if one was used).

`approach`:

  Object of class `"character"` containing 'frequentist' or 'bayesian' depending on the user's selecion.

`assayData`:

  Object of class `"AssayData"` that is inherited from the `ExpressionSet` object used to create the `epheno` object.

`phenoData`:

  Object of class `"AnnotatedDataFrame"` that contains information about the variables stored in the experimentData slot such as their class (continuous, categorical, etc) or type (mean, summaryDif, pval, etc).

`featureData`:

  Object of class `"AnnotatedDataFrame"` that is inherited from the `ExpressionSet` object used to create the `epheno` object.

`experimentData`:

  Object of class `"MIAME"` that is inherited from the `ExpressionSet` object used to create the `epheno` object.

`annotation`:

  Object of class `"character"` that is inherited from the `ExpressionSet` object used to create the `epheno` object.

`protocolData`:

  Object of class `"AnnotatedDataFrame"` that is inherited from the `ExpressionSet` object used to create the `epheno` object.

`.__classVersion__`:

  Object of class `"Versions"` that is inherited from the `ExpressionSet` object used to create the `epheno` object.

### Extends

Class `"ExpressionSet"`, directly. Class `"eSet"`, by class "ExpressionSet", distance 2. Class `"VersionedBiobase"`, by class "ExpressionSet", distance 3. Class `"Versioned"`, by class "ExpressionSet", distance 4.
