\title{Function to extract data from the GEO web site}
\description{
Data files that are available at GEO web site are identified by GEO
accession numbers. Given the url for the CGI script at GEO and
a GEO accession number, the functions extract data from the web site
and returns a matrix containing the data.
}
\usage{
readGEOAnn(GEOAccNum, url = "https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?")
readIDNAcc(GEOAccNum, url = "https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?")
getGPLNames(url ="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/browse.cgi?")
getSAGEFileInfo(url =
"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/browse.cgi?view=platforms&prtype=SAGE&dtype=SAGE")
getSAGEGPL(organism = "Homo sapiens", enzyme = c("NlaIII", "Sau3A"))
readUrl(url)
}
\arguments{
\item{url}{\code{url} the url for the CGI script at GEO}
\item{GEOAccNum}{\code{GEOAccNum} a character string for the GEO
accession number of a desired file (e. g. GPL97)}
\item{organism}{\code{organism} a character string for the name of the
organism of interests}
\item{enzyme}{\code{enzyme} a character string that can be eighter
NlaII or Sau3A for the enzyme used to create SAGE tags}
}
\details{
\code{url} is the CGI script that processes user's
request. \code{\link{readGEOAnn}} invokes the CGI by passing a GEO
accession number and then processes the data file obtained.
\code{\link{readIDNAcc}} calls \code{\link{readGEOAnn}} to read the
data and the extracts the columns for probe ids and accession numbers.
The \code{GEOAccNum} has to be the id for an Affymetrix chip.
\code{\link{getGPLNames}} parses the html file that lists GEO
accession numbers and descriptions of the array represented by the
corresponding GEO accession numbers.
}
\value{
Both \code{\link{readGEOAnn}} and \code{\link{readIDNAcc}} return a
matrix.
\code{\link{getGPLNames}} returns a named vector of the names of
commercial arrays. The names of the vector are the corresponding GEO
accession number.

# Read the annotation data file for HG-U133A which is GPL96 based on
# examining geoAccNums
