I am new to R. I am trying to view the Golub_merge dataset in R using the View() function.
> View(Golub_Merge)

and, I get this error:

Error: VECTOR ELT() can only be applied to a 'list', not a 'builtin'

Please help.

Golub_Merge is an ExpressionSet, not a 'matrix-like R object'. If you want to use View, you have to extract whatever you want to look at first.

View(exprs(Golub_Merge))

View(pData(phenoData(Golub_Merge)))

See ?ExpressionSet for more information.

Actually, View(Golub_Merge) works for me, because as.data.frame(Golub_Merge) is defined and works. I guess there is another package involved, masking the as.data.frame generic from BiocGenerics. OP, please EDIT your question to add the output of traceback() (immediately after the error) and sessionInfo().
