# Bio::DB::GFF::Util::Rearrange(3pm)

rearrange utility

## NAME

Bio::DB::GFF::Util::Rearrange - rearrange utility

## SYNOPSIS

```
 use Bio::DB::GFF::Util::Rearrange 'rearrange';
 my ($arg1,$arg2,$arg3,$others) = rearrange(['ARG1','ARG2','ARG3'],@args);
```

## DESCRIPTION

This is a different version of the **\_rearrange()** method from Bio::Root::Root.  It runs as a function call, rather than as a method call, and it handles unidentified parameters slightly differently.

It exports a single function call:

- @rearranged\_args = rearrange(\\@parameter\_names,@parameters);

  The first argument is an array reference containing list of parameter names in the desired order.  The second and subsequent arguments are a list of parameters in the format:

  ```
    (-arg1=>$arg1,-arg2=>$arg2,-arg3=>$arg3...)
  ```

  The function calls returns the parameter values in the order in which they were specified in `@parameter_names`.  Any parameters that were not found in `@parameter_names` are returned in the form of a hash reference in which the keys are the uppercased forms of the parameter names, and the values are the parameter values.

## BUGS

None known yet.
