     'edesignCT' contains the experimental set up of a time course
     microarray experiment where there is a common starting point for
     the different experimental groups.

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

     data(edesignCT)

_F_o_r_m_a_t:

     A matrix with 32 rows and 7 colums

     rows [1:32] "Array1" "Array2" "Array3" "Array4" ...

     columns [1:7] "Time" "Replicates" "Control" "Tissue1" "Tissue2"
     "Tissue3" "Tissue4"

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

     Arrays are given in rows and experiment descriptors are given in
     columns. Row names contain array names. 

     '"Time"' indicates the values that variable Time takes in each
     hybridization. There are 4 time points, which allows an up to 3
     degree regression polynome. 

     '"Replicates"' is an index indicating replicate hyridizations,
     i.e. hybridizations are numbered, giving replicates the same
     number.

     ' "Control"', '"Tissue1"', '"Tissue2"', '"Tissue3"' and
     '"Tissue4"'  columns indicate array assigment to experimental
     groups, coding with 1 and 0 whether each array belongs to that
     group or not.
