### Arguments

`gds` | `gds.class` object containing node named "paths".

### Details

Function is important within many functions and can lead to errors if row and column names are not correctly specified. By default, es2gds can recognize whether a methylumiset object was read in through readEPIC or methylumiR and will set the row and col names paths correctly. Will fail noisily if given a pathway that does not exist.
