\title{ Remove wells from the analysis }
\description{

}
\usage{
discardWells(data, screenNr, labtekNr, vecPositions)
}
%- maybe also 'usage' for other objects documented here.
\arguments{
  \item{data}{ an R data frame generated with \code{\link{generateDatasetFile}} }
  \item{screenNr}{ the number of the experiment that contains the plate to discard }
  \item{labtekNr}{ the number of the plate to discard }
  \item{vecPositions}{ a vector specifying the numbers of the wells to discard }
}

\value{
A new dataset that does not contain the specified wells.
A new dataset that stil contains the specified wells/spots, but excludes them from the further analysis by setting their \code{SpotType}s to -1.
}
