Transposing an array-like object
Description
Transpose an array-like object by permuting its dimensions.
This is a multidimensional generalization of the
t()
operator used for 2D-transposition.
NOTE: This man page is for the aperm
S4 generic function defined in the BiocGenerics package.
See ?base::aperm
for the default method
(defined in the base package).
Bioconductor packages can define specific methods for objects
not supported by the default method.
Usage
aperm(a, perm, ...)
Arguments
a |
An array-like object. |
perm , ... |
See |
Value
A transposed version of array-like object a
, with subscripts
permuted as indicated by the perm
vector.
