getCposDensity {methylPipe} | R Documentation

## Determines the density of genomic Cxx positions for a series of genomic regions

### Description

After having used getCpos (or getCposChr), getCposDensity determines the density of Cxx sites for each bin of each genomic region.

### Usage

    getCposDensity(GenoRanges, Cpos, nbins)

### Arguments

`GenoRanges` | an object of class GRanges used to generate the Cpos list
`Cpos` | list returned by getCpos or getCposChr methods
`nbins` | numeric; the number of bins each region of genomic regions is divided

### Value

Returns a list with the number of Cxx sites per bp of bin size for each region of the GRanges.
