AbstractULAlignment

public AbstractULAlignment()

Method Detail

symbolAt

public Symbol symbolAt(int index)

this will return the ambiguity symbol associated with all symbols in that column

Specified by:

symbolAt in interface SymbolList

Parameters:

index - the offset into this SymbolList

Returns:

the Symbol at that index

labelsAt

public List labelsAt(int column)

Description copied from interface: UnequalLengthAlignment

Returns a list labels, of all seqs that cover that column

Specified by:

labelsAt in interface UnequalLengthAlignment

labelsInRange

public List labelsInRange(Location loc)

Description copied from interface: UnequalLengthAlignment

Returns list of all the labels that intersect that range

Specified by:

labelsInRange in interface UnequalLengthAlignment

symbolListIterator

public Iterator symbolListIterator()

Description copied from interface: Alignment

Creates an Iterator over the SymbolLists in the alignment. This should be similar to iterating over the labels and then fetching each SymbolList, but the order is not guaranteed to be the same.

Specified by:

symbolListIterator in interface Alignment

Returns:

an Iterator

debug

protected void debug(String s)

leftMost

public Object leftMost()

leftMost and rightMost return labels. If there are more than one that start at the same location it returns the longest, if they are the same length it returns the first one it found;

rightMost

public Object rightMost()

subAlignment

public Alignment subAlignment(Set labels,
                              Location loc)
                       throws IndexOutOfBoundsException

Retrieves a subalignment specified by the location.

WARNING: It is assumed that the location is contiguous. If the location is non-contiguous it may be preferable to use a block iterator to retrieve each sub location independently.

Specified by:

subAlignment in interface Alignment

Parameters:

labels - the Set of sequences to include by label

loc - the Location to include

Returns:

a sub Alignment

Throws:

IndexOutOfBoundsException

See Also:

subAlignment(Set labels, int min, int max)

subAlignment

public Alignment subAlignment(Set labels,
                              int min,
                              int max)
                       throws NoSuchElementException

Retreives a subAlignment

Parameters:

labels - the labels of the SymbolLists to be in the Alignment

min - the left most coordinate

max - the right most coordinate

Returns:

an Alignment

Throws:

NoSuchElementException - if one of the values in labels is not in the parent alignment

orderedLables

public SortedSet orderedLables(Comparator comp)
