| subset {BiocGenerics} | R Documentation |
Return subsets of vector-like, matrix-like or data-frame-like objects which meet conditions.
NOTE: This man page is for the subset S4 generic function
defined in the BiocGenerics package.
See ?base::subset for the subset S3 generic
defined in the base package.
subset(x, ...)
x |
A vector-like, matrix-like or data-frame-like object to be subsetted. |
... |
Additional arguments (e.g. |
An object similar to x containing just the selected elements (for a
vector-like object), or the selected rows and columns (for a matrix-like or
data-frame-like object).
base::subset in the base package
for the subset S3 generic.
showMethods for displaying a summary of the
methods defined for a given generic function.
selectMethod for getting the definition of
a specific method.
subset,DataTable-method in the S4Vectors
package for an example of a specific subset method (defined
for DataTable objects).
BiocGenerics for a summary of all the generics defined in the BiocGenerics package.
