Bio::Map::MappableI - An object that can be placed in a map
# get a Bio::Map::MappableI somehow my $position = $element->map_position(); # these methods will be important for building sorted lists if( $position->equals($p2) ) { # do something } elsif( $position->less_tha($p2) ) {} elsif( $position->greater_than($p2) ) { }
This object handles the generic notion of an element placed on a (linear) Map. Elements can have multiple positions in a map such as is the case of Restriction enzyme cut sites on a sequence map. For exact information about an element's position in a map one must query the associate PositionI object which is accessible through the position() method.

The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. Internal methods are usually preceded with a _
Title : position Usage : my $position = $mappable->position(); Function: Get/Set the Bio::Map::PositionI for a mappable element Returns : Bio::Map::PositionI Args : (optional) Bio::Map::PositionI
Title : equals Usage : if( $mappable->equals($mapable2)) ... Function: Test if a position is equal to another position Returns : boolean Args : Bio::Map::MappableI or Bio::Map::PositionI
Title : less_than Usage : if( $mappable->less_than($m2) ) ... Function: Tests if a position is less than another position Returns : boolean Args : Bio::Map::MappableI or Bio::Map::PositionI
Title : greater_than Usage : if( $mappable->greater_than($m2) ) ... Function: Tests if position is greater than another position Returns : boolean Args : Bio::Map::MappableI or Bio::Map::PositionI
