batch {cellHTS2} | R Documentation

## Access and replace the batch slot of a cellHTS object

### Description

This method accesses and replaces the data stored in the slot `batch` of a `cellHTS` object.

### Usage

    batch(object)
    batch(object) <- value

### Arguments

`object` | object of class `cellHTS`.
`value` | a 3D array of integer values giving the batch number for each plate, sample and channel. Its dimensions should be equal to dim(object)[1] (this corresponds to the total number of features: number of wells per plate x number of plates) x dim(object)[2] (this corresponds to the number of samples or replicates) x number of channels.

### Value

`Data` returns a 3D array containing the contents of slot `batch`. This array has dimensions number of features (product between the number of wells per plates and the number of plates) x number of samples (or replicates) x number of channels of the current `cellHTS` object.
See class `cellHTS` for details.
