Clarification on `groups` argument in `escape.matrix` #103

Hi, Nick,

Thanks for a great useful tool. I am excited to try it.

It says groups = The number of cells to separate the enrichment calculation. Could you please clarify what it means by "separating enrichment calculation"? Like per identity?

Thank you again.

Groups is the total number of cells to perform the calculation on at a time, so the default is 1000 - meaning the enrichment score is calculated for the first 1000, then iteratively until all cells are done. This is really only for computational feasibility and does not affect the actual enrichment score calculation.

Hope that helps, Nick
