Method Detail

getAnnotation

public Annotation getAnnotation()

Description copied from interface: Annotatable

Should return the associated annotation object.

Specified by:

getAnnotation in interface Annotatable

Returns:

an Annotation object, never null

getName

public String getName()

Description copied from interface: Symbol

The long name for the symbol.

Specified by:

getName in interface Symbol

Returns:

the long name

doubleValue

public double doubleValue()

Returns:

the double value associated with this double symbol

getMatches

public Alphabet getMatches()

Description copied from interface: Symbol

The alphabet containing the symbols matched by this ambiguity symbol.

This alphabet contains all of, and only, the symbols matched by this symbol. For example, the symbol representing the DNA ambiguity code for W would contain the symbol for A and T from the DNA alphabet.

Specified by:

getMatches in interface Symbol

Returns:

the Alphabet of symbols matched by this symbol

getSymbols

public List getSymbols()

Description copied from interface: BasisSymbol

The list of symbols that this symbol is composed from.

In the usual case, this list will contain just this single symbol. In the case where a symbol represents an ordered combination of other symbols, the list will contain each of these BasisSymbols.

Specified by:

getSymbols in interface BasisSymbol

Returns:

the List of Symbols that this Symbol is built from

getBases

public Set getBases()
