  # Bio
  
  In my work as a Computational Biologist I often find myself
  reimplementing the same or similar set of functionality across several
  places and script. I can't count the number of times I've implemented
  simple `reverse-complement`, `parse-csv`, or efficient string
  searching algorithms. This module serves to tackle this problem by
  putting this functionality in one convenient place.
  
  ## Functionality
  
  * `Bio::IO` implements common parsers and pretty-printers for many of
    the file formats I deal with daily. Current sub-modules include:
    * `Bio::IO::CSV` for manipulating CSV files.
    * `Bio::IO::Fasta` for manipulating FASTA files.
    * `Bio::IO::BAM` for manipulating BAM/SAM files
    * `Bio::IO::FastQ` for manipulating FastQ sequence read files.
  * `Bio::Seq` implements common sequence manipulation functionality.
  
  ## Examples
  
  ```
  my $bam   = "test.bam";
  
  my $af = AlignmentFile.new(:bam-file($bam), :flags("r"));
  my @results = $af.query('NC_000001.11:2-300');
  
  for @results {
      say $_.rname;
      say $_.name;
      say $_.seq;
      say $_.strand;
  };
  
  ```
