`coverageDataSet`	an objet of type `coverageDataSet` containing the coverage values for each sample.
`name`	a character vector indicating the gene name.
`introns`	an objet of type `annotationsSet` containing the annotations of the intronic regions. Note: The introns must have same name as the gene they are associated with.

An objet of type geneCoverage containing the coverage values for the specified gene for all the samples in coverageDataSet.
