[BioC] how to give input to geneAnswer

[Gilbert Feng]

Hi, Budhayash

Just like steve stated, you can find the description in vignette about 
how to build a geneInput for GeneAnswers.

Basically, the essential input is a vector of genes (Current version 
only supports Entrez IDs). But if you have any values associated with 
these genes, like foldchange, p-value, etc, the input can be a matrix or 
dataframe. In this case, the 1st column is always for gene Entrez IDs. 
You can find a case by this:

 >library(GeneAnswers)
 >data(humanGeneInput)
 >head(humanGeneInput)

       GeneID foldChange       pValue
374      374  17.553825 1.241073e-11
2289    2289  10.549139 5.513686e-14
10563  10563  10.688601 1.073456e-10
687      687   6.112663 1.351898e-09
80149  80149   4.939585 6.473841e-09
5033    5033   4.265287 1.341238e-06

row names can be null.

Best

Gilbert
