We will offer a short tutorial on R/qtl at the Complex Trait Consortium meeting in Chicago:
| Sunday, 9 May, 8:00-9:30pm | |
| Monet Room of the Omni Hotel |
If you are interested in following along on your own laptop, it would be best to download and install R and R/qtl, and the additional files (below), in advance. You may also wish to print out the PDF of the tutorial. There won't be free WIFI.
I will bring some CDs and USB sticks with the necessary files, as well as hard copies of the tutorial, but there may not be enough for everyone interested.
Download and run the installer for R version 2.11.0: R-2.11.0-win32.exe
Download and run the installer for R version 2.11.0: R-2.11.0.pkg
Install R as above, then start R and from the R command prompt type install.packages("qtl")
You will need internet access.
Download the following additional files, and place them somewhere that you can get to them:
| rqtltour2.pdf | The text of the tutorial (you might want to print this out) | |
| rqtltour2.R | The R code for the tutorial | |
| sug.csv | The data we'll consider (from Sugiyama et al., Physiol Genomics 10:5-12, 2002) | |
| various.RData | Results of some intermediate calculations, which will save us time |
