GOSemSim redesign in terms of S4 classes

I started to develop GOSemSim package two years ago when I was not quite familiar with R. I am very happy to see that someone use it and found it helpful.

I try to learn S4 and redesign GOSemSim with S4 classes and methods in the pass two weeks, and the very first version was implemented. As I’m not very familiar with S4, the package may need improve in many aspect.

The newest version of GOSemSim can be installed by:

install.packages("GOSemSim",repos="http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc",type="source")

Here come some example:

> library(GOSemSim)
Loading required package: AnnotationDbi
Loading required package: Biobase
