Turn a TopTags Object into a Dataframe

Description

Turn a TopTags object into a data.frame.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'TopTags'
as.data.frame(x, row.names = NULL, ...)

Arguments

`x`	an object of class `TopTags`
`row.names`	`NULL` or a character vector giving the row names for the data frame. Missing values are not allowed.
`...`	other arguments are not currently used.

Details

Convert edgeR objects into data.frames. This method returns the table component of a TopTags object. For DGEExact and DGELRT objects, the genes and table components are combined into a data.frame, similar to what is done by topTags but without sorting or p-value adjustment. For DGEList, the genes and counts components are combined into a data.frame.

Amongst other things, this functionality allows edgeR objects to be written to files using write.table or write.csv.

Value

A data.frame.
