my $param = Finnigan::InjectionData->decode(\*INPUT);
$param->dump;

Finnigan::InjectionData is a component of Finnigan::SeqRow

METHODS

The constructor method

MISSING ACCESSORS

Since I had not seen this object used by the programs, I did not worry about providing the complete interface for it. Accessors may be added for:

volume

injected volume

(what's the difference between "volume" and "injected volume"?

weight

internal standard amount

dilution factor

a couple other numbers of unknown meaning
