Symbol can have +multiple synonyms or matches within the same Alphabet, which +makes possible to represent ambiguity codes and gaps. + +Symbols can be also composed from ordered list other symbols. For +example, codons can be represented by single Symbol using a +compound Alphabet made from three DNA Alphabets. + +This module was implemented for the purposes of meeting the +BSANE/BioCORBA spec 0.3 only. + +=head1 FEEDBACK + +=head2 Mailing Lists + +User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other +Bioperl modules.
