NAME

Bio::Coordinate::Result - Results from coordinate transformation.

VERSION

version 1.007001

SYNOPSIS

  use Bio::Coordinate::Result;

  #get results from a Bio::Coordinate::MapperI
  $matched = $result->each_match;

DESCRIPTION

The results from Bio::Coordinate::MapperI are kept in an object which itself is a split location, See Bio::Location::Split. The results are either Matches or Gaps. See Bio::Coordinate::Result::Match and Bio::Coordinate::Result::Gap.

If only one Match is returned, there is a convenience method of retrieving it or accessing its methods. Same holds true for a Gap.
