=head1 NAME
Bio::LocatableSeq - A Sequence object with start/end points on it
that can be projected into a MSA or have coordinates relative to another seq.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Bio::LocatableSeq;
my $seq = new Bio::LocatableSeq(-seq => "CAGT-GGT",
-id => "seq1",
-start => 1,
-end => 7);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
# a normal sequence object
$locseq->seq();
$locseq->id();
# has start,end points
$locseq->start();
$locseq->end();
# inheriets off RangeI, so range operations possible
=head1 FEEDBACK
=head2 Mailing Lists
User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to one
of the Bioperl mailing lists. Your participation is much appreciated.

http://bio.perl.org/MailList.html - About the mailing lists
The locatable sequence object was developed mainly because the
SimpleAlign object requires this functionality, and in the rewrite
of the Sequence object we had to decide what to do with this.
It is, to be honest, not well integrated with the rest of bioperl, for
example, the trunc() function does not return a LocatableSeq object,
as some might have thought. There are all sorts of nasty gotcha's
about interactions between coordinate systems when these sort of
objects are used.

Returns :
Args :

my ($self,$char1,$char2) = @_;
$char1 ||= "/";
$char2 ||= "-";
$self->throw("Attribute id not set") unless $self->id();

return $self->id() . $char1 . $self->start . $char2 . $self->end ;
}
=head2 no_gap
Title : no_gaps
Usage :$self->no_gaps('.')
Function:
Gets number of gaps in the sequence. The count excludes
leading or trailing gap characters.
Valid bioperl sequence characters are [A-Za-z\-\.\*]. Of
these, '.' and '-' are counted as gap characters unless an
optional argument specifies one of them.
Returns : number of internal gaps in the sequnce.
Args : a gap character (optional)
=cut
sub no_gaps {
my ($self,$char) = @_;
my ($seq, $count) = (undef, 0);
# default gap characters
$char ||= '-.';
$self->warn("I hope you know what you are doing setting gap to [$char]")
unless $char =~ /[-.]/;
$seq = $self->seq;
return 0 unless $seq; # empty sequence does not have gaps

$seq =~ s/([$char]+)$//;

=head2 column_from_residue_number
Title : column_from_residue_number
Usage : $col = $seq->column_from_residue_number($resnumber)
Function:
This function gives the position in the alignment
(i.e. column number) of the given residue number in the
sequence. For example, for the sequence
Seq1/91-97 AC..DEF.GH
column_from_residue_number(94) returns 5.
An exception is thrown if the residue number would lie
outside the length of the aligment
(e.g. column_from_residue_number( "Seq2", 22 )
Returns : A column number for the position of the
given residue in the given sequence (1 = first column)
Args : A residue number in the whole sequence (not just that
segment of it in the alignment)
=cut
sub column_from_residue_number {
my ($self, $resnumber) = @_;
$self->throw("Residue number has to be a positive integer, not [$resnumber]")
unless $resnumber =~ /^\d+$/ and $resnumber > 0;
if ($resnumber >= $self->start() and $resnumber <= $self->end()) {
my @residues = split //, $self->seq;
my $count = $self->start();
my $i;
for ($i=0; $i < @residues; $i++) {
if ($residues[$i] ne '.' and $residues[$i] ne '-') {
$count == $resnumber and last;
$count++;
}
}
# $i now holds the index of the column.
# The actual column number is this index + 1
return $i+1;
}
$self->throw("Could not find residue number $resnumber");
}
=head2 location_from_column
Title : location_from_column
Usage : $loc = $ali->location_from_column( $seq_number, $column_number)
Function:
This function gives the residue number in the sequence with
the given name for a given position in the alignment
(i.e. column number) of the given. Gaps complicate this
process and force the output to be a L where
values can be undefined. For example, for the alignment
Seq1/91-97 AC..DEF.G.
Seq2/1-9 .CYHDEFKGK
location_from_column( Seq1/91-97, 3 ) position 93
location_from_column( Seq1/91-97, 2 ) position 92^93
location_from_column( Seq1/91-97, 10) position 97^98
location_from_column( Seq2/1-9, 1 ) position undef
An exact position returns a Bio::Location::Simple object
where where location_type() returns 'EXACT', if a position
is between bases location_type() returns 'IN-BETWEEN'.
Column before the first residue returns undef. Note that if
the position is after the last residue in the alignment,
that there is no guarantee that the original sequence has
residues after that position.
An exception is thrown if the column number is not within
the sequence.
Returns : Bio::Location::Simple or undef
Args : A column number
Throws : If column is not within the sequence
See L for more.

sub location_from_column {
my ($self, $column) = @_;
$self->throw("Column number has to be a positive integer, not [$column]")
unless $column =~ /^\d+$/ and $column > 0;
$self->throw("Column number [column] is larger than".
" sequence length [". $self->length. "]")
unless $column <= $self->length;
my ($loc);
my $s = $self->subseq(1,$column);
$s =~ s/\W//g;
my $pos = CORE::length $s;
my $start = $self->start || 0 ;
if ($self->subseq($column, $column) =~ /[a-zA-Z]/ ) {
$loc = new Bio::Location::Simple
(-start => $pos + $start - 1,
-end => $pos + $start - 1,
-strand => 1

-end => $pos +1 + $start - 1,
-strand => 1,
-location_type => 'IN-BETWEEN'
);
}
return $loc;
}
=head2 revcom
Title : revcom
Usage : $rev = $seq->revcom()
Function: Produces a new Bio::LocatableSeq object which
has the reversed complement of the sequence. For protein
sequences this throws an exception of "Sequence is a
protein. Cannot revcom"
Returns : A new Bio::LocatableSeq object
Args : none
=cut

my ($self) = @_;

}
=head2 trunc
Title : trunc
Usage : $subseq = $myseq->trunc(10,100);
Function: Provides a truncation of a sequence,
Example :
Returns : a fresh Bio::PrimarySeqI implementing object
Args : Two integers denoting first and last columns of the
sequence to be included into sub-sequence.
=cut
sub trunc {
my ($self, $start, $end) = @_;
my $new = $self->SUPER::trunc($start, $end);
