                        synergy/antagonism in experimental data as per
                        Bliss or Loewe model.
combineDataFromMultipleFiles
                        It combines data from multiple
                        files/experiments into a matrix. Multiple
                        experiments can be performed at the same or
                        different concentration ranges. The function
                        can also be used if there is only one
                        file/experiments.
createUniquePertbs      Function to calculate possible unique
                        perturbations of replicates.
extractKey              Extracts the barcodes from a dataset, each
                        experimental plate has a barcode in a dataset.
                        Barcodes are extracted from the header of the
                        each plate data from position specified by
                        keyposition argument.
extractReplicateValues
                        On basis of input well ranges, the function
                        extracts values of these ranges from data.
extractValuesFromRange
                        Given a well/wells alphanumeric name e.g. "B2",
                        this function translates it to numeric values.
loeweModel              This function applies Loewe model.
readFMCAValues          Read data from Fluorometric microculture
                        cytotoxic assay (FMCA) data format and clean
                        for outliers.
readFile                Read raw experimental data from a file. This
                        function reads the data from specified
                        (excel,log, txt etc) file and store it in a
                        data frame.
readFluostarPlates      Read a file containing raw read outs and
                        calculates survival values. This function
                        calculates survival values as (survival value=
                        treated - empty/ untreated control- empty) of
                        the wells specified in the wells argument.
                        Wells argument should be in triplet form, they
                        are, untreated control well range, empty well
                        range and treated well range. The function also
                        handles the double plate experiments in which
                        one plate is read twice and only one of them is
                        selected.
readMacSynergyValues    Read data from macSynergyII format and clean
                        for outliers.
readOtherValues         Read data from other than MacSynergy and FMCA
                        format and clean for outliers.
removeOutliers          This function removes outliers from data.
                        Outliers are removed if data have more than two
                        replicates. Outlier is defined as an
                        observation that has maximum contribution to
                        data CV when CV is higher than a user defined
                        threshold.
selectPlate             Select one readout from the twice read data and
                        store selected values. In those cases where an
                        experiment is read twice, only one readout from
                        each pair is selected. The selection is based
                        on presence of minimum number of "selection
                        key" or read with highest mean is picked in
                        case of tie.
synAntPlot              This function prints and saves 2D and 3D plots
                        of synergy/antagonism.
synergySignificant      Function "synergySignificant" calculates
                        significant synergy/antagonism concentration
                        combinations and saves synergy/antagonism
                        values.
