15 =head1 NAME
17 Bio::PopGen::IO - Input individual,marker,allele information
19 =head1 SYNOPSIS
21 use Bio::PopGen::IO;
22 my $io = Bio::PopGen::IO->new(-format => 'csv',
23 -file => 'data.csv');
25 # Some IO might support reading in a population at a time
27 my @population;
28 while( my $ind = $io->next_individual ) {
29 push @population, $ind;
33 =head1 DESCRIPTION
35 This is a generic interface to reading in population genetic data (of
36 which there really isn't too many standard formats). This implementation
37 makes it easy to provide your own parser for the data. You need to
38 only implement one function next_individual. You can also implement
39 next_population if your data has explicit information about population
40 memberhsip for the indidviduals.
42 =head1 FEEDBACK
44 =head2 Mailing Lists
46 User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other
47 Bioperl modules. Send your comments and suggestions preferably to
48 the Bioperl mailing list. Your participation is much appreciated.

51 http://bioperl.org/wiki/Mailing_lists - About the mailing lists
53 =head2 Support
55 Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:
57 I<bioperl-l@bioperl.org>
59 rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and
60 reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly
61 address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem
62 with code and data examples if at all possible.
64 =head2 Reporting Bugs
66 Report bugs to the Bioperl bug tracking system to help us keep track
67 of the bugs and their resolution. Bug reports can be submitted via
68 the web:
