histMatchLength {RiboProfiling} | R Documentation

## Histogram of match length distribution of reads.

### Description

Histogram of match length distribution of reads.

### Usage

    histMatchLength(aln, log10Transf = 0, titleHist)

### Arguments

`aln` | A GAlignments object of the BAM mapping file.
`log10Transf` | A boolean. Either 0 (default) or 1 (log10).
`titleHist` | a character. The main title for the histogram. Default - none.

### Value

A list with 2 elements. The first element: a data.frame of the number of counts per match length distribution. The second element in the list: a ggplot2 histogram of the match length distribution.

### Examples

    #starting from a GAlignment object
    data(ctrlGAlignments)
    aln <- ctrlGAlignments
    #no log10 scaling
    matchLenDistr <- histMatchLength(aln, 0)
    #to plot the histogram
    matchLenDistr[[2]]
