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

     Update the allocation of samples on the arrays.  This is a
     subfunction needed for 'updateDesign', but is not directly used.

_U_s_a_g_e:

       arrayUpdate(array.allocation, condition.allocation, nRILs, nSlides)

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

array.allocation: matrix with nArray rows and nRIL columns. Elements of
          1/0 indicate this RIL (or strain) is/not selected  for this
          array.  

condition.allocation: matrix with nCondition rows and nRIL columns.
          Elements of 1/0 indicate this RIL (or strain) is/not selected
           for this condition.  

   nRILs: number of RILs or strains available for the experiment.  

 nSlides: total number of slides available for experiment.  

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     This function is used only for designing a dual-channel experiment
     where samples need to be paired.

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

     A list with the following two elements: 
      'new.array.allocation': an updated array allocation table 
      'new.condition.allocation': an updated condition allocation table
