Bio::SeqIO::fasta3pm
Fasta sequence input/output stream
Usage
Do not use this module directly. Use it via the Bio::SeqIO class.
Overview
This object can transform Bio::Seq objects to and from fasta flat file databases.

Appendix
The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _
next_seq
Title : next_seqUsage : $seq = $stream->next_seq()Function: returns the next sequence in the streamReturns : Bio::Seq object, or nothing if no more availableArgs : NONE
next_seq_fast
Title : next_seq_fastUsage : $seq = $stream->next_seq_fast()Function: returns the next sequence in the streamFavors speed over perfection.Returns : Bio::Seq object, or nothing if no more availableArgs : NONE
write_seq
Title : write_seqUsage : $stream->write_seq(@seq)Function: Writes the $seq object into the streamReturns : 1 for success and 0 for errorArgs : Array of 1 or more Bio::PrimarySeqI objects
width
Title : widthUsage : $obj->width($newval)Function: Get/Set the line width for FASTA output (not counting whitespace).Returns : value of widthArgs : newvalue (optional)
block
Title : blockUsage : $obj->block($newval)Function: Get/Set the length of each block for FASTA output. Sequence blockswill be split with a space. Configuring block, to a value of 10 forexample, allows one to easily identify a position in a sequence by eye.Default : same value used for width.Returns : value of blockArgs : newvalue (optional)
preferred_id_type
Title : preferred_id_typeUsage : $obj->preferred_id_type('accession')Function: Get/Set the preferred type of identifier to use in the ">ID" positionfor FASTA output.Returns : string, one of values defined in @Bio::SeqIO::fasta::SEQ_ID_TYPES.Default : displayArgs : string when setting. This must be one of values defined in@Bio::SeqIO::fasta::SEQ_ID_TYPES. Allowable values:accession, accession.version, display, primaryThrows : fatal exception if the supplied id type is not in @SEQ_ID_TYPES.
