_F_o_r_m_a_t:

     BACarray is a list of four components: 

        NormalArray  a numeric matrix consisting of 2270 rows and 3 columns
       DiseaseArray  a numeric matrix consisting of 2270 rows and 4 columns
         chromosome  a numeric vector of length 2270
        nucposition  a numeric vector of length 2270

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     In 'NormalArray' and 'DiseaseArray', each column corresponds to
     one CGH array, and each row corresponds to one gene/clone. The
     value of each entry is the log fluorescence ratio resulted from
     the CGH experiment. The order of the genes/clones in the rows is
     the same as the order of the genes/clones on the genome.
     'chromosome' and 'nucposition' provide chromosome number and
     nucleotide  position for each gene/clone.
