Create a multiData structure.
This function creates a multiData structure by storing its input arguments as the 'data' components.
multiData(...)

Arguments to be stored in the multiData structure. |
A multiData structure is intended to store (the same type of) data for multiple, possibly independent,
realizations
(for example, expression data for several independent experiments). It is a list where
each component corresponds to an (independent) data set. Each component is in turn a list that can hold
various types of information but must have a data component. In a "strict" multiData structure, the
data components are required to each be a matrix or a data frame and have the same number of
columns. In a "loose" multiData structure, the data components can be anything (but for most
purposes should be of comparable type and content).
The resulting multiData structure.

each component of a multiData structure.
data1 = matrix(rnorm(100), 20, 5); data2 = matrix(rnorm(50), 10, 5); md = multiData(Set1 = data1, Set2 = data2); checkSets(md)
