Overview

DESCRIPTION

Bio::Nexus::CharactersBlock represents a characters nexus block.

Example of Characters block:

Begin Characters;

Dimensions NChar=20
           NTax=4;
Format DataType=DNA
Missing=x
Gap=- MatchChar=.;
Matrix
 fish  ACATA GAGGG TACCT CTAAG
 frog  ACTTA GAGGC TACCT CTAGC
 snake ACTCA CTGGG TACCT TTGCG
 mouse ACTCA GACGG TACCT TTGCG;

End;

USAGE

require 'bio/db/nexus'

# Create a new parser:
nexus = Bio::Nexus.new( nexus_data_as_string )

# Get first characters block (same methods as Nexus::DataBlock except
# it lacks get_taxa method):   
characters_block = nexus.get_characters_blocks[ 0 ]
