=head1 NAME
Bio::Structure::Entry - Bioperl structure Object, describes the whole entry
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#add synopsis here
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This object stores a whole Bio::Structure entry. It can consist of one or
more models (Bio::Structure::Model), which in turn consist of one or more
chains (Bio::Structure::Chain). A chain is composed of residues
(Bio::Structure::Residue) and a residue consists of atoms (Bio::Structure::Atom)
If no specific model or chain is chosen, the first one is choosen.

Title : _parent
Usage : This is an internal function only. It is used to have one

to have no knowledge about all this (and thus removing the possibility
of reference cycles).
This method hides the details of manipulating references to an anonymous
hash.
Function: To get/set an objects parent
Returns : a reference to the parent if it exist, undef otherwise. In the
current implementation each node should have a parent (except Entry).
