APPENDIX

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

new

  Title   : new
  Usage   : $featuregroup = Bio::Expression::FeatureGroup->new(%args);
  Function: create a new featuregroup object
  Returns : a Bio::Expression::FeatureGroup object
  Args    : an optional hash of parameters to be used in initialization:
            -id    --  the featuregroup ID
            -type  --  the featuregroup type
 
 

_initialize

  Title   : _initialize
  Usage   : $featuregroup->_initialize(@args);
  Function: initialize the featuregroup object
  Returns : nothing
  Args    : @args
 
 

type

  Title   : type
  Usage   : $featuregroup->type($optional_arg);
  Function: get/set the type of the featuregroup
  Comments: this is probably going to be a string like
            "quality control", "mismatch blah blah", etc.
  Returns : the featuregroup type
  Args    : a new value for the featuregroup type
 
 

id

  Title   : id
  Usage   : $featuregroup->id($optional_arg);
  Function: get/set the id of the featuregroup
  Returns : the featuregroup id
  Args    : a new value for the featuregroup id
 
 

standard_deviation

  Title   : standard_deviation
  Usage   : $featuregroup->standard_deviation($optional_arg);
  Function: get/set the standard deviation of the featuregroup value
  Returns : the featuregroup standard deviation
  Args    : a new value for the featuregroup standard deviation
  Notes   : this method does no calculation, it merely holds a value
 
 

quantitation

  Title   : quantitation
  Usage   : $featuregroup->quantitation($optional_arg);
  Function: get/set the quantitation of the featuregroup
  Returns : the featuregroup's quantitated value
  Args    : a new value for the featuregroup's quantitated value
  Notes   : this method does no calculation, it merely holds a value
 
 

quantitation_units

  Title   : quantitation_units
  Usage   : $featuregroup->quantitation_units($optional_arg);
  Function: get/set the quantitation units of the featuregroup
  Returns : the featuregroup's quantitated value units
  Args    : a new value for the featuregroup's quantitated value units
 
 

presence

  Title   : presence
  Usage   : $featuregroup->presence($optional_arg);
  Function: get/set the presence call of the featuregroup
  Returns : the featuregroup's presence call
  Args    : a new value for the featuregroup's presence call
 
 

add_feature

  Title   : add_feature
  Usage   : $feature_copy = $featuregroup->add_feature($feature);
  Function: add a feature to the featuregroup
  Returns : see this_feature()
  Args    : a Bio::Expression::FeatureI compliant object
 
 

this_feature

  Title   : this_feature
  Usage   : $feature = $featuregroup->this_feature
  Function: access the last feature added to the featuregroup
  Returns : the last feature added to the featuregroup
  Args    : none
 
 

each_feature

  Title   : each_feature
  Usage   : @features = $featuregroup->each_feature
  Function: returns a list of Bio::Expression::FeatureI compliant
            objects
  Returns : a list of objects
  Args    : none
 
 

each_feature_quantitation

  Title   : each_feature_quantitation
  Usage   : @featurequantitions = $featuregroup->each_feature_quantitation;
  Function: returns an list of quantitations of the features in the featuregroup
  Returns : a list of numeric values
  Args    : none
 
 

is_qc

  Title   : is_qc
  Usage   : $is_quality_control = $featuregroup->is_qc
  Function: get/set whether or not the featuregroup is used for quality control purposes
  Returns : a boolean (equivalent)
  Args    : a new value
