S4 generic functions for Bioconductor

Description

S4 generic functions needed by many Bioconductor packages.

Details

We divide the generic functions defined in the BiocGenerics package in 2 categories: (1) functions already defined in base R and explicitly promoted to generics in BiocGenerics, and (2) Bioconductor specific generics.

(1) Functions defined in base R and explicitly promoted to generics in the BiocGenerics package

Generics for functions defined in package base:

Generics for functions defined in package utils:

Generics for functions defined in package graphics:

Generics for functions defined in package stats:

Generics for functions defined in package parallel:

(2) Bioconductor specific generics

Note

More generics can be added on request by sending an email to the Bioc-devel mailing list:

Things that should NOT be added to the BiocGenerics package:
