Classes "coloc" and "colocBayes"

Description

Classes designed to hold objects returned by function coloc.test which performs a test of the null hypothesis that two genetic traits colocalise - that they share a common causal variant.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls to the function coloc.test(). Class colocBayes extends class coloc.
