Module Bio.SeqFeature

Represent a Sequence Feature holding info about a part of a sequence.

This is heavily modeled after the Biocorba SeqFeature objects, and
may be pretty biased towards GenBank stuff since I'm writing it
for the GenBank parser output...

What's here:

Base class to hold a Feature.
----------------------------
classes:
o SeqFeature

Hold information about a Reference.
----------------------------------

This is an attempt to create a General class to hold Reference type
information.

classes:
o Reference

Specify locations of a feature on a Sequence.
---------------------------------------------

This aims to handle, in Ewan's words, 'the dreaded fuzziness issue' in
much the same way as Biocorba. This has the advantages of allowing us
to handle fuzzy stuff in case anyone needs it, and also be compatible
with Biocorba.

classes:
o FeatureLocation - Specify the start and end location of a feature.

o ExactPosition - Specify the position as being exact.
o WithinPosition - Specify a position occuring within some range.
o BetweenPosition - Specify a position occuring between a range.
o BeforePosition - Specify the position as being found before some base.
o AfterPosition - Specify the position as being found after some base.

Classes
AbstractPosition Abstract base class representing a position.
AfterPosition Specify a position where the actual location is found after it.
BeforePosition Specify a position where the actual location occurs before it.
BetweenPosition Specify the position of a boundary between two coordinates.
ExactPosition Specify the specific position of a boundary.
FeatureLocation Specify the location of a feature along a sequence.
OneOfPosition Specify a position where the location can be multiple positions.
PositionGap Simple class to hold information about a gap between positions.
Reference Represent a Generic Reference object.
SeqFeature Represent a Sequence Feature on an object.
WithinPosition Specify the position of a boundary within some coordinates.
