## Read NimbleGen design files (methods)

### Description

Methods for extracting array design information from corresponding files in the Nimblegen .ndf and .ngd formats.

### Methods

x = "missing", y = "missing", z = "missing"

  Handle empty function call

x = "vector", y = "missing", z = "missing"

  Handle single vector input. If two values specified in vector, reinterpret function call with two character inputs. Otherwise, handle as empty function call.

x = "vector", y = "vector", z = "missing"

  Handle two vector input. If vectors of unit length, reinterpret function call with two character inputs. Otherwise, handle as improper function call.

x = "character", y = "character", z = "ExpressionSet"

  Handle two character vector inputs, each specifiying a filename to use when reading design information. Design information will be written to an `ExpressionSet`.

x = "character", y = "character", z = "character"

  Handle two character vector inputs, each specifiying a filename to use when reading design information. Design information will be written to a database.
