NAME

Bio::Phylo::Matrices::Alignment - The alignment object to aggregate sequences.

SYNOPSIS

 use Bio::Phylo::Matrices::Alignment;
 use Bio::Phylo::Matrices::Sequence;
 
 my $alignment = Bio::Phylo::Matrices::Alignment->new;
 my $sequence  = Bio::Phylo::Matrices::Sequence->new;
 
 $alignment->insert($sequence);

DESCRIPTION

This module aggregates sequence objects in a larger container object. The alignment object inherits from the Bio::Phylo::Listable object, so look there for more methods applicable to alignment objects.
