SD as priority in mitch_calc

[fischerstm]

Hei,

I really like your tool! My experience so far is very good, but sometimes it is for non-bioinformatics really problematic to understand the results- somehow having more than 2 lists of expressed genes of two complex biological experiments inside the analysis makes it sometimes really hard to explain.

using mitch I really liked to use SD as priority. but is it still part of the package? - it gives me the error that it is no possible setting. The updated documentation on bioconductor mentions the SD-priority, whereas in github only "effect" and "significance" is mentioned: have you replaced or deleted it?

greetings

Hi Stefan,
Thanks for raising this issue. Indeed the documentation in the README didn't explain the SD prioritisation well. In the latest commit I have tried to fix that.
SD prioritisation is still functional. If you get an error, it could be that the data you have is a single dimension. For SD to work, you will need 2 or more contrasts. If you are still getting an error, could you provide the first 10 rows of the input data after mitch_import().
