#generate some example data
set.seed(100)
x<-matrix(rnorm(1000*20),ncol=20)
dd<-sample(1:1000,size=100)

u<-matrix(2*rnorm(100),ncol=10,nrow=100)
x[dd,11:20]<-x[dd,11:20]+u

y<-c(rep(1,10),rep(2,10))

data=list(x=x,y=y, geneid=as.character(1:nrow(x)),
genenames=paste("g",as.character(1:nrow(x)),sep=""), logged2=TRUE)
