Bio::Seq::SimulatedRead - Read with sequencing errors taken from a reference sequence

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Bio::Seq::SimulatedRead;
    use Bio::PrimarySeq;
  
    # Create a reference sequence
    my $genome = Bio::PrimarySeq->new( -id    => 'human_chr2',
                                       -seq   => 'TAAAAAAACCCCTG',
                                       -desc  => 'The human genome' );

    # A 10-bp error-free read taken from a genome
    my $read = Bio::Seq::SimulatedRead->new(
       -reference => $genome  , # sequence to generate the read from
       -id        => 'read001', # read ID
       -start     => 3        , # start of the read on the genome forward strand
       -end       => 12       , # end of the read on the genome forward strand
       -strand    => 1        , # genome strand that the read is on
    );

    # Display the sequence of the read
    print $read->seq."\n";

    # Add a tag or MID to the beginning of the read
    $read->mid('ACGT');

    # Add sequencing errors (error positions are 1-based and relative to the
    # error-free MID-containing read)
    my $errors = {};
    $errors->{'8'}->{'+'} = 'AAA'; # insertion of AAA after residue 8
    $errors->{'1'}->{'%'} = 'G';   # substitution of residue 1 by a G
    $errors->{'4'}->{'-'} = undef; # deletion of residue 4
    $read->errors($errors);

    # Display the sequence of the read with errors
    print $read->seq."\n";

    # String representation of where the read came from and its errors
    print $read->desc."\n";

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This object is a simulated read with sequencing errors. The user can provide a
reference sequence to take a read from, the position and orientation of the 
read on the reference sequence, and the sequencing errors to generate.

The sequence of the read is automatically calculated based on this information.
By default, the description of the reads contain tracking information and will
look like this (Bioperl-style):

  reference=human_chr2 start=3 end=12 strand=-1 mid=ACGT errors=1%G,4-,8+AAA description="The human genome"

or Genbank-style:

  reference=human_chr2 position=complement(3..12) mid=ACGT errors=1%G,4-,8+AAA description="The human genome"

Creating a simulated read follows these steps:
  1/ Define the read start(), end(), strand() and qual_levels() if you want
     quality scores to be generated. Do not change these values once set because
     the read will not be updated.
  2/ Specify the reference sequence that the read should be taken from. Once
     this is done, you have a fully functional read. Do not use the reference()
     method again after you have gone to the next step.
  3/ Use mid() to input a MID (or tag or barcode) to add to the beginning of the
     read. You can change the MID until you go to next step.
  4/ Give sequencing error specifications using errors() as the last step. You
     can do that as many times as you like, and the read will be updated.

            );

                            reference sequence to take the read from. See

=head2 qual_levels

 Title    : qual_levels
 Function : Get or set the quality scores to give to the read. By default, if your
            reference sequence does not have quality scores, no quality scores
            are generated for the simulated read. The generated quality scores
            are very basic. If a residue is error-free, it gets the quality score
            defined for good residues. If the residue has an error (is an
            addition or a mutation), the residue gets the quality score specified
            for bad residues. Call the qual_levels() method before using the
            reference() method.
 Usage    : my $qual_levels = $read->qual_levels( );
 Arguments: Array reference containing the quality scores to use for:
            1/ good residues (e.g. 30)
            2/ bad residues (e.g. 10)
 Returns  : Array reference containing the quality scores to use.

 Title    : reference

=head2 errors

 Title    : errors
 Function : Get or set the sequencing errors and update the read. By default, no
            errors are made. This method must be called after the mid() method.
 Usage    : my $errors = $read->errors();
 Arguments: Reference to a hash of the position and nature of sequencing errors.
            The positions are 1-based relative to the error-free MID-containing
            read (not relative to the reference sequence). For example:
               $errors->{34}->{'%'} = 'T'  ; # substitution of residue 34 by a T
               $errors->{23}->{'+'} = 'GG' ; # insertion of GG after residue 23
               $errors->{45}->{'-'} = undef; # deletion of residue 45
            Substitutions and deletions are for a single residue, but additions
            can be additions of several residues.
            An alternative way to specify errors is by using array references
            instead of scalar for the hash values. This allows to specify
            redundant mutations. For example, the case presented above would
            result in the same read sequence as the example below:
               $errors->{34}->{'%'} = ['C', 'T']    ; # substitution by a C and then a T
               $errors->{23}->{'+'} = ['G', 'G']    ; # insertion of G and then a G
               $errors->{45}->{'-'} = [undef, undef]; # deletion of residue, and again
 Returns  : Reference to a hash of the position and nature of sequencing errors.

=head2 track

 Title    : track
 Function : Get or set the tracking status in the read description. By default,
            tracking is on. This method can be called at any time.
 Usage    : my $track = $read->track();
 Arguments: 1 for tracking, 0 otherwise
 Returns  : 1 for tracking, 0 otherwise

=cut

sub track {
   my ($self, $track) = @_;
   if (defined $track) {
      if (defined $self->reference) {
         if ($track == 1) {

=head2 coord_style

 Title    : coord_style
 Function : When tracking is on, define which 1-based coordinate system to use
            in the read description:
              * 'bioperl' uses the start, end and strand keywords (default),
                similarly to the GFF3 format. Example:
                  start=1 end=10 strand=+1
                  start=1 end=10 strand=-1
              * 'genbank' does only provide the position keyword. Example:
                  position=1..10
                  position=complement(1..10)
 Usage    : my $coord_style = $read->track();
 Arguments: 'bioperl' or 'genbank'
 Returns  : 'bioperl' or 'genbank'

=cut

sub coord_style {
   my ($self, $coord_style) = @_;
   my %styles = ( 'bioperl' => undef, 'genbank' => undef );
   if (defined $coord_style) {
