24 The Bioperl Blast module provides an API to the BLAST program, and
|
|
|
25 thereby permits the parsing, running, HTML-formatting, and general
|
|
|
26 manipulation of Blast data by simple method calls on Perl objects.
|
|
|
27 It does not implement the Blast algorithm itself, relying on external
|
|
|
28 applications for this compute-intensive operation.
|
|
|

|
|
|
30 Bio::Tools::Blast.pm is the central "brain" module. It makes use of
|
|
|
31 other modules in the Bio/Tools/Blast/ directory. Bio::Tools:Blast.pm
|
|
|
32 is the only module you need to import into your namespace for working
|
|
|
33 with Blast reports.
|
|
|
34
|
|
|
35 Documentation and usage information about Blast.pm is contained in the
|
|
|
36 module itself. Run Blast.pm through pod2html (preferably from Perl
|
|
|
37 v5.004 or later) and view the resulting output with a web
|
|
|
38 browser. Other modules in the hierarchy are similarly documented but
|
|
|
39 Blast.pm contains the main documentation.
