     This page gives an overview of the LIMMA functions available for
     microarray quality assessment and diagnostic plots.

     This package provides an 'anova' method which is designed for
     assessing the quality of an array series or of a normalization
     method. It is not designed to assess differential expression of
     individual genes. 'anova' uses utility functions 'bwss' and
     'bwss.matrix'.

     Diagnostics plots can be produced by 'imageplot', 'plotMA',
     'plotPrintTipLoess', 'plotPrintorder' and 'plotDensities'.

     'plotPrintTipLoess' uses utility functions 'gridr' and 'gridc'.
