[BioC] squaring each element of an expression set

Hi Andrew,

I am not using oligo but if you have an ExpressionSet object xs
containing data on log2 scale, then the values on linear scale
will simply be

2^exprs(xs)

Note that this is exponentiation not squaring: 2^x and not x^2.

Cheers,

Using oligo to do rma, I end up with an expression set object whose 
elements
are in log2 space.  Is there some quick way to unlog (square) them to get
absolute intensity values back?

Andrew
