\begin{Description}\relax
Combine a series of \code{marrayRaw}, \code{marrayNorm} and
\code{marrayInfo} objects.
\end{Description}
\begin{Usage}
\begin{verbatim}
## S3 method for class 'marrayRaw':
cbind(..., deparse.level=1)
## S3 method for class 'marrayNorm':
cbind(..., deparse.level=1)
## S3 method for class 'marrayInfo':
rbind(..., deparse.level=1)
\end{verbatim}
\end{Usage}
\begin{Arguments}
\begin{ldescription}
\item[\code{...}] \code{marrayRaw} objects or \code{marrayNorm} objects
\item[\code{deparse.level}] not currently used, see \code{\LinkA{cbind}{cbind}} in the base package
\end{ldescription}
\end{Arguments}
\begin{Details}\relax
\code{cbind} combines data objects assuming the same gene lists but
different arrays. 
\code{rbind} combines data objects assuming equivalent arrays, i.e., the
same RNA targets, but different genes. 

For \code{cbind}, the matrices o f expression data from the individual
objects are cbinded. 
The data.frames of target information, if they exist, are rbinded. 
The combined data object will preserve any additional components or
attributes found in the first object to be combined. 
For \code{rbind}, the matrices of expression data are rbinded while the
target information, in any, is unchanged.
