Method Detail

getNumStates

public int getNumStates()

Description copied from interface: DataType

get number of unique states

Specified by:

getNumStates in interface DataType

Returns:

number of unique states

isUnknownStateImpl

protected final boolean isUnknownStateImpl(int state)

Description copied from class: SimpleDataType

For subclasses to handle, without regard for gaps

Specified by:

isUnknownStateImpl in class SimpleDataType

Returns:

true if this state is an unknown state

getStateImpl

protected int getStateImpl(char c)

Get state corresponding to character c
NOTE: IF YOU CHANGE THIS IT MAY STOP THE NUCLEOTIDE TRANSLATOR FROM WORKING! - It relies on the fact that all the states for 'ACGTU' are between [0, 3]

Specified by:

getStateImpl in class SimpleDataType

getCharImpl

protected char getCharImpl(int state)

Get character corresponding to a given state

Specified by:

getCharImpl in class SimpleDataType

getDescription

public java.lang.String getDescription()

Description copied from interface: DataType

description of data type

Specified by:

getDescription in interface DataType

Returns:

a string describing the data type

getTypeID

public int getTypeID()

Description copied from interface: DataType

get numerical code describing the data type

Specified by:

getTypeID in interface DataType

Returns:

the unique numerical code describing the data type

isTransitionByState

public final boolean isTransitionByState(int firstState,
                          int secondState)

Returns:

true if A->G, G->A, C->T, or T->C if firstState equals secondState returns FALSE!

isTransitionByChar

public final boolean isTransitionByChar(char firstChar,
                         char secondChar)

Returns:

true if A->G, G->A, C->T, or T->C if firstState equals secondState returns FALSE! (I've renamed things to avoid confusion between java typing of ints and chars)

getNucleotideStates
