Hi all,
As described in the doc for reverse, complement and reverseComplement,
x can be a character vector.
When I tried, it turned out that these functions are not implemented
for complement and reverseComplement.
There are of some use for me, so I just wrote them up:
setMethod("complement", "character",
function(x, ...){
if(length(x)==1) x<-DNAString(x)
else x<-DNAStringSet(x)
complement(x)
}
)
setMethod("reverseComplement", "character",
function(x, ...){
if(length(x)==1) x<-DNAString(x)
else x<- DNAStringSet(x)
reverseComplement(x)
}
)
I just post them in case there would be of use for someone else. I
recognize that it does not save much compared to first converting the
character vector into a DNAString or DNAStringSet. At least, for me,
it allows to skip some "input" evaluation test checking whether I
start with a character vector or a DNAString.
Best,
