## Printing summary methods for microarray objects

### Description

Print methods were defined for the microarray classes, `"marrayInfo"`, `"marrayLayout"`, `"marrayRaw"`, `"marrayNorm"`. These methods produce summaries of the intensity and textual data stored in different classes of microarray objects.

### Methods

x = ANY

  generic print method

x = marrayLayout

  for an object of class `"marrayLayout"`, the method prints main layout parameters such as the number of spots and the dimensions of the spot and grid matrices.

x = marrayInfo

  for an object of class `"marrayInfo"`, the method prints the first 10 rows of the `"maInfo"` and `"maLabels"` slots.

x = marrayRaw

  for an object of class `"marrayRaw"`, the method prints a short description of the microarray layout `"maLayout"` and the target samples hybridized to the arrays `"maTargets"`, and a summary of the distribution of the log-ratio statistics `"maM"`.

x = marrayNorm

  for an object of class `"marrayNorm"`, the method prints a short description of the microarray layout `"maLayout"` and the target samples hybridized to the arrays `"maTargets"`, and a summary of the distribution of the log-ratio statistics `"maM"`.
