=head1 NAME
ECnumber - representation of EC numbers
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Bio::Tools::ECnumber;
# Creation of ECnumber objects
# ----------------------------
my $EC1 = Bio::Tools::ECnumber->new( -ec_string => "4.3.2.1" );
my $EC2 = Bio::Tools::ECnumber->new( -ec_string => "EC 1.1.1.1" );
my $EC3 = Bio::Tools::ECnumber->new();
# Copying
# -------
my $EC4 = $EC1->copy();
# Modification of ECnumber objects
# --------------------------------
print $EC3->EC_string( "1.01.01.001" ); # Prints "1.1.1.1".
# To string
# ---------
print $EC3->EC_string();
# or:
print $EC3->to_string();
# Test for equality
# -----------------
# Against ECnumber object:
if ( $EC3->is_equal( $EC2 ) ) { # Prints "equal".
print "equal";
}
# Against string representation of EC number:
if ( ! $EC3->is_equal( "1.1.1.-" ) ) { # Prints "not equal".
print "not equal";
}
# Test for membership
# -------------------
my $EC5 = Bio::Tools::ECnumber->new( -ec_string => "4.3.2.-" );
# Against ECnumber object.
if ( $EC1->is_member( $EC5 ) ) { # Prints "member".
print "member";
}
# Against string representation of EC number.
if ( ! $EC1->is_member( "4.3.1.-" ) ) { # Prints "not member".
print "not member";
}
