NAME

Bio::Matrix::Mlagan - A generic matrix with mlagan fields

SYNOPSIS

# See L<Bio::Matrix::Generic> for most methods.
# These are relevant for mlagan IO:
$matrix->gap_open(-400);
$matrix->gap_continue(-25);

DESCRIPTION

This is based on Bio::Matrix::Generic, differing by storing gap_open and gap_continue data members to allow mlagan IO (see Bio::Matrix::IO::mlagan). (Those values are 'outside' the matrix.)

It also limits the structure to a 6x6 matrix with row & column names 'A', 'C', 'G', 'T', '.' and 'N'.

APPENDIX

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _

new

Title   : new
Usage   : my $obj = Bio::Matrix::Generic->new();
Function: Builds a new Bio::Matrix::Generic object 
Returns : an instance of Bio::Matrix::Generic
Args    : -values            => arrayref of arrayrefs of data initialization
          -matrix_id         => id of the matrix
          -matrix_name       => name of the matrix
          -matrix_init_value => default value to initialize empty cells
          -gap_open          => gap open penalty (int)
          -gap_continue      => gap continue penalty (int)

          NB: -rownames and -colnames should not be given here, since they are
          always being set to 'A', 'C', 'G', 'T', '.' and 'N'.

gap_open

Title   : gap_open
Usage   : $obj->gap_open(-400);
Function: Get/set the gap open amount.
Returns : int
Args    : none to get, OR int to set

gap_continue

Title   : gap_continue
Usage   : $obj->gap_continue(-25);
Function: Get/set the gap continue amount.
Returns : int
Args    : none to get, OR int to set

add_row

Title   : add_row
Usage   : Do not use
Function: This generic method is not suitable for mlagan, where the number of
          rows is fixed.
Returns : Warning
Args    : none

remove_row

Title   : remove_row
Usage   : Do not use
Function: This generic method is not suitable for mlagan, where the number of
          rows is fixed.
Returns : Warning
Args    : none

add_column

Title   : add_column
Usage   : Do not use
Function: This generic method is not suitable for mlagan, where the number of
          columns is fixed.
Returns : Warning
Args    : none

remove_column

Title   : remove_column
Usage   : Do not use
Function: This generic method is not suitable for mlagan, where the number of
