Usage

require 'ms/in_silico/digester'
require 'ms/in_silico/spectrum'
include Ms::InSilico

trypsin = Digester['Trypsin']
peptides = trypsin.digest('MIVIGRSIVHPYITNEYEPFAAEKQQILSIMAG')
# => [
# 'MIVIGR',
# 'SIVHPYITNEYEPFAAEK',
# 'QQILSIMAG']

spectrum = Spectrum.new(peptides[0])
spectrum.parent_ion_mass    
# => 688.417442373391

spectrum.series('b')
# => [
# 132.047761058391,
