Overview

About

Maintained by Vidal FeyFirst published 2021-08-191 releasesCRAN page ↗

A set of tools supporting more flexible heatmaps. The graphics is grid-like using the old graphics system. The main function is heatmap.n2(), which is a wrapper around the various functions constructing individual parts of the heatmap, like sidebars, picket plots, legends etc. The function supports zooming and splitting, i.e., having (unlimited) small heatmaps underneath each other in one plot deriving from the same data set, e.g., clustered and ordered by a supervised clustering method.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)

install.packages("heatmapFlex", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
