Method: Bio::Sequence#initialize

Defined in:
lib/bio/sequence.rb

#initialize(str) ⇒ Sequence

Create a new Bio::Sequence object

s = Bio::Sequence.new('atgc')
puts s                                  #=> 'atgc'

Note that this method does not intialize the contained sequence as any kind of bioruby object, only as a simple string

puts s.seq.class                        #=> String

See Bio::Sequence#na, Bio::Sequence#aa, and Bio::Sequence#auto for methods to transform the basic String of a just created Bio::Sequence object to a proper bioruby object

Arguments:

  • (required) str: String or Bio::Sequence::NA/AA object

Returns

Bio::Sequence object
