Cross tabulation and table creation
table uses the cross-classifying factors to build a contingency
table of the counts at each combination of factor levels.
NOTE: This man page is for the table S4 generic function
defined in the BiocGenerics package.
See ?base::table for the default method
(defined in the base package).
Bioconductor packages can define specific methods for objects
not supported by the default method.
table(...)
... |
One or more objects which can be interpreted as factors (including character strings), or a list (or data frame) whose components can be so interpreted. |
See ?base::table for the value returned by the
default method.
Specific methods defined in Bioconductor packages should also return the type of object returned by the default method.
base::table for the default table method.
showMethods for displaying a summary of the
methods defined for a given generic function.
selectMethod for getting the definition of
a specific method.

Rle objects).
