\HeaderA{qc.have.params}{Does simpleaffy have a QC definition file for the specified array?}{qc.have.params}
\keyword{misc}{qc.have.params}
\begin{Description}\relax
Simpleaffy requires a definition file describing the qc probes,
spikes, alpha values, etc. for the array of interest. This is used to
initialize the QC environment for the array (usually implicitly within
the \code{\LinkA{qc}{qc}} function), by a call to  
\code{\LinkA{setQCEnvironment}{setQCEnvironment}}. This function can be used
to see if the specified array has a definition file.
\end{Description}
\begin{Usage}
\begin{verbatim}
  qc.have.params(name)
\end{verbatim}
\end{Usage}
\begin{Arguments}
\begin{ldescription}
\item[\code{name}] The 'clean' CDF name of the array (i.e. the result of calling
\code{\LinkA{cleancdfname}{cleancdfname}} on the \code{cdfName} of the \code{AffyBatch} object containing the
array data of interest.
\end{ldescription}
\end{Arguments}
\begin{Value}
True or False
