The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: CompBio
DSLIP: bdphp
description: basic Comp. Biology (bioinformatics) library
userid: SEANQ (Sean P. Quinlan)
chapterid: 23 (Miscellaneous_Modules)
communities:
Boston Perl Mongers mailing list
similar:
bioperl
rationale:
Provide a set of modules and utilities used for many common, basic
bioinformatics proceedures. CompBio is for computational biology,
the original term used for what is now more commonly called
bioinformatics. The bioperl project already has the, well, bioperl
namespace, as well as bioinf.
As indicated in the docs, my hope is not to replace or try to outdo
bioperl (certainly not on my own!), but to provide a simpler
solution to approaching many of the more common tasks I have found
regularly needed. Besides CompBio.pm and CompBio/Simple.pm, I plan
to make available asap CompBio/DB.pm which is a library of methods
using DBI to provide easy ways to getting at commonly needed data.
These modules, and some additional utilities and modules which I
will upload to CPAN latter if the community feels they are
appropriate, have all been developed wholly or patially under grants
from the D.O.E. and the N.H.B.L.I. More info will be available in a
post I'll send out to comp.lang.perl.modules shortly.
Thanks for your time and consideration! -Sean Quinlan
