_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     This generic function accesses and replaces the data stored in
     slot 'batch' of an object of 'cellHTS' class.

     batch(object)
     batch(object) <- value

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

  object: Object derived from class 'cellHTS'.

   value: a 3D array of integer values giving the batch number for each
          plate, sample and channel. Its dimensions should be equal to
          dim(object)[1] (this corresponds to the total number of
          features: number of wells per plate x number of plates) x
          dim(object)[2] (this corresponds to the number of samples or
          replicates) x number of channels.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     'Data' returns a 3D array containing the contents of slot 'batch'.
     This array has dimensions number of features (product between the
     number of wells per plates and the number of plates) x number of
     samples (or replicates) x number of channels of the current
     'cellHTS' object.

     See class 'cellHTS' for details.
