     Coercing methods were defined to convert microarray objects of one
     class into objects of another class, e.g., instances of the 
     '"marrayRaw"' class into instances of the '"marrayNorm"' class.

     _f_r_o_m = _m_a_r_r_a_y_R_a_w, _t_o = _m_a_r_r_a_y_N_o_r_m convert an object of class
          '"marrayRaw"' into an object of class '"marrayNorm"'.
