14 =head1 NAME
16 Bio::RangeI - Range interface
18 =head1 SYNOPSIS
20 #Do not run this module directly
22 =head1 DESCRIPTION
24 This provides a standard BioPerl range interface that should be
25 implemented by any object that wants to be treated as a range. This
26 serves purely as an abstract base class for implementers and can not
27 be instantiated.
29 Ranges are modeled as having (start, end, length, strand). They use
30 Bio-coordinates - all points E<gt>= start and E<lt>= end are within the
31 range. End is always greater-than or equal-to start, and length is
32 greater than or equal to 1. The behaviour of a range is undefined if
33 ranges with negative numbers or zero are used.
35 So, in summary:
37 length = end - start + 1
38 end >= start
39 strand = (-1 | 0 | +1)
41 =head1 FEEDBACK
43 =head2 Mailing Lists
45 User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
46 Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to one
47 of the Bioperl mailing lists. Your participation is much appreciated.

52 =head2 Support
54 Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:
56 I<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>
58 rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and
59 reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly
60 address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem
61 with code and data examples if at all possible.
63 =head2 Reporting Bugs
65 Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
66 the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via the
