NAME

Bio::PopGen::IO::phase - A parser for Phase format data

SYNOPSIS

# Do not use directly, use through the Bio::PopGen::IO driver

use Bio::PopGen::IO;
my $io = Bio::PopGen::IO->new(-format => 'phase',
                             -file   => 'data.phase');

# Some IO might support reading in a population at a time

my @population;
while( my $ind = $io->next_individual ) {
    push @population, $ind;
}

DESCRIPTION

A driver module for Bio::PopGen::IO for parsing phase data.

PHASE is defined in http://www.stat.washington.edu/stephens/instruct2.1.pdf

new

Title   : new
Usage   : my $obj = Bio::PopGen::IO::hapmap->new();
Function: Builds a new Bio::PopGen::IO::hapmap object 
Returns : an instance of Bio::PopGen::IO::hapmap
Args    : [optional, these are the current defaults] 
          -field_delimiter => ' '
          -allele_delimiter=> '\s+'
          -no_header       => 0,

flag

Title   : flag
Usage   : $obj->flag($flagname,$newval)
Function: Get/Set the flag value
Returns : value of a flag (a boolean)

          on set, new value (a boolean or undef, optional)

next_individual

Title   : next_individual
Usage   : my $ind = $popgenio->next_individual;
Function: Retrieve the next individual from a dataset
Returns : L<Bio::PopGen::IndividualI> object
Args    : none

next_population

Title   : next_population
Usage   : my $ind = $popgenio->next_population;
Function: Retrieve the next population from a dataset
Returns : L<Bio::PopGen::PopulationI> object
