I'm having a little trouble believing what I'm seeing. To the best of my knowledge, sample.info <- data.frame( + spl=paste('A', 1:8, sep=''), + stat=rep(c('cancer' , 'healthy'), each=4)) is not legal R syntax, and R 3.6.1 agrees with me Error: unexpected '=' in "x <- data.frame(+ spl="
Then I see + c('Sample Name' , 'Cancer Status') which R doesn't like either, for obvious reasons. Error in +c("Sample Name", "Cancer\nStatus") : invalid argument to unary operator Are you sure all these + signs are in your actual code? What do you expect them to do?
