Bio::Assembly::Scaffold(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Bio::Assembly::Scaffold(3pm)

NAME

Bio::Assembly::Scaffold - Perl module to hold and manipulate sequence assembly data.

SYNOPSIS # # Module loading use Bio::Assembly::IO;

    # Assembly loading methods
    my $aio = Bio::Assembly::IO->new(-file=>"test.ace.1", -format=>'phrap');
    my $assembly = $aio->next_assembly;
    foreach my $contig ($assembly->all_contigs) {
        # do something... (see Bio::Assembly::Contig)
    }

DESCRIPTION

Bio::Assembly::Scaffold was developed to store and manipulate data from sequence assembly programs like Phrap. It implements the ScaffoldI interface and intends to be generic enough to be used by Bio::Assembly::IO drivers written to programs other than Phrap.

Support

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

bioperl-l@bioperl.org

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.
