NAME

Bio::Tools::Run::Cap3 - wrapper for CAP3

SYNOPSIS

use Bio::Tools::Run::Cap3;
# Run Cap3 using an input FASTA file
my $factory = Bio::Tools::Run::Cap3->new( -clipping_range => 150 );
my $asm_obj = $factory->run($fasta_file, $qual_file);
# An assembly object is returned by default
for my $contig ($assembly->all_contigs) {
  ... do something ...
}

# Read some sequences
use Bio::SeqIO;
my $sio = Bio::SeqIO->new(-file => $fasta_file, -format => 'fasta');
my @seqs;
while (my $seq = $sio->next_seq()) {
  push @seqs,$seq;
}

# Run Cap3 using input sequence objects and returning an assembly file
my $asm_file = 'results.ace';
$factory->out_type($asm_file);
$factory->run(\@seqs);

DESCRIPTION

Wrapper module for CAP3 program

Mailing Lists

User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to one of the Bioperl mailing lists. Your participation is much appreciated.

Support

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

bioperl-l@bioperl.org

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.
