Get Numerical Spacing
Convert character to numerical spacing measure for within-array replicate spots.
getSpacing(spacing, layout)
spacing |
character string or integer.
Acceptable character strings are |
layout |
list containing printer layout information |
"rows" means that duplicate spots are printed side-by-side by rows.
These will be recorded in consecutive rows in the data object.
"columns" means that duplicate spots are printed side-by-sidy by columns.
These will be separated in the data object by layout$nspot.r rows.
"subarrays" means that a number of sub-arrays, with identical probes in the same arrangement, are printed on each array.
The spacing therefore will be the size of a sub-array.
"topbottom" is the same as "subarrays" when there are two sub-arrays.
Integer giving spacing between replicate spots in the gene list.
