_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Function returns a list of all beads on a particular array that
     were not decoded

_U_s_a_g_e:

     getUnregisteredBeads(BLData, array)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

  BLData: an BeadLevelList object

   array: numeric value for the array that we want to find unregistered
          beads on

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     Beads which cannot be decoded are assigned a ProbeID of 0 and
     excluded from further analysis. The function simply looks up all
     beads which have a ProbeID of 0 and returns the index of the bead
     (1-49777).

_V_a_l_u_e:

     vector of numeric specifying the indices of beads which were not
     decoded properly

_A_u_t_h_o_r(_s):

     data(BLData)

     getUnregisteredBeads(BLData, 1)

     u = getUnregisteredBeads(BLData,1)

     u[1:20]

     BLData$ProbeID[33,1]

     ##For a quick test to see where these beads are located we can use 'plotBeadLocations'

     plotBeadLocations(BLData, ProbeID=0, array=1, label=FALSE)
