This serves purely as an abstract base class for implementers and can not be instantiated. Ranges are modeled as having (start, end, length, strand). They use Bio-coordinates - all points E= start and E= end are within the range. End is always greater-than or equal-to start, and length is greater than or equal to 1. The behaviour of a range is undefined if ranges with negative numbers or zero are used. So, in summary: length = end - start + 1 end >= start strand = (-1 | 0 | +1) =head1 FEEDBACK =head2 Mailing Lists User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to one of the Bioperl mailing lists. Your participation is much appreciated. bioperl-l@bioperl.org - General discussion http://bioperl.org/wiki/Mailing_lists - About the mailing lists =head2 Support Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list: I rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible. =head2 Reporting Bugs Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the web: http://bugzilla.bioperl.org/ =head1 AUTHOR - Heikki Lehvaslaiho Email: heikki-at-bioperl-dot-org =head1 CONTRIBUTORS Juha Muilu (muilu@ebi.ac.uk) Sendu Bala (bix@sendu.me.uk) Malcolm Cook (mec@stowers-institute.org) Stephen Montgomery (sm8 at sanger.ac.uk) =head1 APPENDIX The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods.
