Detailed Description

The alphabet of a gap character '-'.

The alphabet always has the same value ('-').

Member Typedef Documentation

char_type

using seqan3::alphabet_base< gap , size, char >::char_type = std::conditional_t<std::same_as<char , void>, char, char >

protectedinherited

The char representation; conditional needed to make semi alphabet definitions legal.

We need a return type for seqan3::alphabet_base::to_char and seqan3::alphabet_base::assign_char other than void to make these in-class definitions valid when char_t is void.

This entity is stable. Since version 3.1.

rank_type

using seqan3::alphabet_base< gap , size, char >::rank_type = detail::min_viable_uint_t<size - 1>

protectedinherited

The type of the alphabet when represented as a number (e.g. via to_rank()).

This entity is stable. Since version 3.1.

Member Function Documentation

assign_char()
