Synopsis
    use Bio::Location::Simple;
my $location = new Bio::Location::Simple(-start => 1, -end => 100, -strand => 1 ); if( $location->strand == -1 ) { printf "complement(%d..%d)\n", $location->start, $location->end; } else { printf "%d..%d\n", $location->start, $location->end; }
Description
This is an implementation of Bio::LocationI to manage exact location
information on a Sequence: '22' or '12..15' or '16^17'.
You can test the type of the location using lenght() function () or
directly location_type() which can one of two values: 'EXACT' or
'IN-BETWEEN'.

APPENDIXTop
The rest of the documentation details each of the object
methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _
strandTop
  Title   : strand
Usage : $strand = $loc->strand();
Function: get/set the strand of this range
Returns : the strandidness (-1, 0, +1)
Args : optionaly allows the strand to be set
: using $loc->strand($strand)
min_startTop
  Title   : min_start
Usage : my $minstart = $location->min_start();
Function: Get minimum starting location of feature startpoint
Returns : integer or undef if no minimum starting point.
Args : none
max_startTop
  Title   : max_start
Usage : my $maxstart = $location->max_start();
Function: Get maximum starting location of feature startpoint.
In this implementation this is exactly the same as min_start(). Returns : integer or undef if no maximum starting point. Args : none
start_pos_typeTop
  Title   : start_pos_type
Usage : my $start_pos_type = $location->start_pos_type();
Function: Get start position type (ie <,>, ^).
Returns : type of position coded as text ('BEFORE', 'AFTER', 'EXACT','WITHIN', 'BETWEEN', 'IN-BETWEEN') Args : none
min_endTop
  Title   : min_end

Function: Get minimum ending location of feature endpoint
Returns : integer or undef if no minimum ending point.
Args : none
max_endTop
  Title   : max_end
Usage : my $maxend = $location->max_end();
Function: Get maximum ending location of feature endpoint
In this implementation this is exactly the same as min_end(). Returns : integer or undef if no maximum ending point. Args : none
end_pos_typeTop
  Title   : end_pos_type
Usage : my $end_pos_type = $location->end_pos_type();
Function: Get end position type (ie <,>, ^)
