Number of mapped keys for the maps in package dName.db

Description

dNameMAPCOUNTS provides the "map count" (i.e. the count of mapped keys) for each map in package dName.db.

Details

This "map count" information is precalculated and stored in the package annotation DB. This allows some quality control and is used by the checkMAPCOUNTS function defined in AnnotationDbi to compare and validate different methods (like count.mappedkeys(x) or sum(!is.na(as.list(x)))) for getting the "map count" of a given map.

Examples

  dNameMAPCOUNTS
  mapnames <- names(dNameMAPCOUNTS)
  dNameMAPCOUNTS[mapnames[1]]
  x <- get(mapnames[1])
  sum(!is.na(as.list(x)))
  count.mappedkeys(x)   # much faster!
