NAME¶
Bio::LiveSeq::ChainI - Double linked chain data structure
SYNOPSIS¶
#documentation needed
DESCRIPTION¶
This class generates and manipulates generic double linked list, chain, that can
be used to manage biological sequences.
The advantages over strings or plain arrays is the ease of tracking changes
(mutations) in the elements (sequence). The other side of the coin is that
these structures need consideraly more memory, but that is cheap and
constantly inceasing resource in computers.
