# Do not use directly, use through the Bio::PopGen::IO driver

  use Bio::PopGen::IO;
  my $io = Bio::PopGen::IO->new(-format => 'phase',
                               -file   => 'data.phase');
  # Some IO might support reading in a population at a time
  my @population;
  while( my $ind = $io->next_individual ) {
      push @population, $ind;
  }

 Usage   : my $obj = Bio::PopGen::IO::hapmap->new();
 Function: Builds a new Bio::PopGen::IO::hapmap object 
 Returns : an instance of Bio::PopGen::IO::hapmap
 Args    : [optional, these are the current defaults] 
           -field_delimiter => ' '
           -allele_delimiter=> '\s+'
           -no_header       => 0,

flag

 Title   : flag
 Usage   : $obj->flag($flagname,$newval)
 Function: Get/Set the flag value
 Returns : value of a flag (a boolean)

           on set, new value (a boolean or undef, optional)

next_individual

 Title   : next_individual
 Usage   : my $ind = $popgenio->next_individual;
 Function: Retrieve the next individual from a dataset
 Returns : L<Bio::PopGen::IndividualI> object
 Args    : none

next_population

 Title   : next_population
 Usage   : my $ind = $popgenio->next_population;
 Function: Retrieve the next population from a dataset
 Returns : L<Bio::PopGen::PopulationI> object

 Note    : Many implementation will not implement this

write_individual

 Title   : write_individual
 Usage   : $popgenio->write_individual($ind);
 Function: Write an individual out in the file format
 Returns : none
 Args    : L<Bio::PopGen::PopulationI> object(s)

write_population

 Title   : write_population
 Usage   : $popgenio->write_population($pop);
 Function: Write a population out in the file format
 Returns : none
