Hi,

I am trying to follow the example in MLSeq documentation. But I keep on getting errors. The latest one I am getting is

Error in DESeqDataSet(se, design = design, ignoreRank): counts matrix should be numeric, currently it has mode: logical

My code is

data.trainS4 = DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(countData = data.train, colData = classtr,
design = formula(~condition))

I am really new to R and learning it as I am following these examples. Any help would be really great.

Thanks..

Well, what does data.train look like? Can you make a subset file of the first few lines and get that to import?

The output of head(data.train)would do.

Check if your matrix is raw read counts. If it is normalized to the library, i.e counts would look like - 38.713, 410.006, then DESeqDataSetFromMatrix gives an error. DESeq2 is designed for raw read counts.

DESeq2 just works on numeric data . If you don't have a matrix with numeric data DESeq2 gives an error .In that case you should use limma not DESeq2.
