"""Represent a Sequence Feature holding info about a part of a sequence.

This is heavily modeled after the Biocorba SeqFeature objects, and
may be pretty biased towards GenBank stuff since I'm writing it
for the GenBank parser output...

What's here:

Base class to hold a Feature
----------------------------

Classes:
 - SeqFeature

Hold information about a Reference
----------------------------------

This is an attempt to create a General class to hold Reference type
information.

Classes:
 - Reference

Specify locations of a feature on a Sequence
--------------------------------------------

This aims to handle, in Ewan Birney's words, 'the dreaded fuzziness issue'.
This has the advantages of allowing us to handle fuzzy stuff in case anyone
needs it, and also be compatible with BioPerl etc and BioSQL.

Classes:
 - Location - abstract base class of SimpleLocation and CompoundLocation.
 - SimpleLocation - Specify the start and end location of a feature.
 - CompoundLocation - Collection of SimpleLocation objects (for joins etc).
 - Position - abstract base class of ExactPosition, WithinPosition,
   BetweenPosition, AfterPosition, OneOfPosition, UncertainPosition, and
   UnknownPosition.
 - ExactPosition - Specify the position as being exact.
 - WithinPosition - Specify a position occurring within some range.
 - BetweenPosition - Specify a position occurring between a range (OBSOLETE?).
 - BeforePosition - Specify the position as being found before some base.
 - AfterPosition - Specify the position as being found after some base.
 - OneOfPosition - Specify a position consisting of multiple alternative positions.
 - UncertainPosition - Specify a specific position which is uncertain.
 - UnknownPosition - Represents missing information like '?' in UniProt.


Exceptions:
 - LocationParserError - Exception indicating a failure to parse a location
   string.

     - location_operator - a string specifying how this SeqFeature may

       shown below, the location_operator would be "join". This is a proxy
       for feature.location.operator and only applies to compound locations.
     - strand - A value specifying on which strand (of a DNA sequence, for
       instance) the feature deals with. 1 indicates the plus strand, -1
       indicates the minus strand, 0 indicates stranded but unknown (? in GFF3),
       while the default of None indicates that strand doesn't apply (dot in GFF3,

        Note that for a feature defined as a join of several subfeatures (e.g.
        the union of several exons) the gaps are not checked (e.g. introns).
        In this example, the tRNA location is defined in the GenBank file as
        complement(join(1717..1751,4311..4347)), so that position 1760 falls
        in the gap:

class SimpleLocation(Location):
    """Specify the location of a feature along a sequence.

    The SimpleLocation is used for simple continuous features, which can
    be described as running from a start position to and end position
    (optionally with a strand and reference information).  More complex
    locations made up from several non-continuous parts (e.g. a coding
    sequence made up of several exons) are described using a SeqFeature
    with a CompoundLocation.

    Note that the start and end location numbering follow Python's scheme,
    thus a GenBank entry of 123..150 (one based counting) becomes a location
    of [122:150] (zero based counting).

    >>> from Bio.SeqFeature import SimpleLocation
    >>> f = SimpleLocation(122, 150)
    >>> print(f)
    [122:150]
    >>> print(f.start)
    122
    >>> print(f.end)
    150
    >>> print(f.strand)
    None

    Note the strand defaults to None. If you are working with nucleotide
    sequences you'd want to be explicit if it is the forward strand:

    >>> from Bio.SeqFeature import SimpleLocation
    >>> f = SimpleLocation(122, 150, strand=+1)
    >>> print(f)
    [122:150](+)
    >>> print(f.strand)
    1

    Note that for a parent sequence of length n, the SimpleLocation
    start and end must satisfy the inequality 0 <= start <= end <= n.
    This means even for features on the reverse strand of a nucleotide
    sequence, we expect the 'start' coordinate to be less than the
    'end'.

    >>> from Bio.SeqFeature import SimpleLocation
    >>> r = SimpleLocation(122, 150, strand=-1)
    >>> print(r)
    [122:150](-)
    >>> print(r.start)
    122
    >>> print(r.end)
    150
    >>> print(r.strand)
    -1

    i.e. Rather than thinking of the 'start' and 'end' biologically in a
    strand aware manner, think of them as the 'left most' or 'minimum'
    boundary, and the 'right most' or 'maximum' boundary of the region
    being described. This is particularly important with compound
    locations describing non-continuous regions.

    In the example above we have used standard exact positions, but there
    are also specialised position objects used to represent fuzzy positions
    as well, for example a GenBank location like complement(<123..150)
    would use a BeforePosition object for the start.

        and ends. These can either by any of the ``*Position`` objects that
        inherit from Position, or can just be integers specifying the position.
        In the case of integers, the values are assumed to be exact and are
        converted in ExactPosition arguments. This is meant to make it easy
        to deal with non-fuzzy ends.

        >>> print(loc2)

        For nucleotide features you will also want to specify the strand,
        use 1 for the forward (plus) strand, -1 for the reverse (negative)
        strand, 0 for stranded but strand unknown (? in GFF3), or None for
        when the strand does not apply (dot in GFF3), e.g. features on

        >>> f.strand
        1

        Notice that the strand of the compound location is computed
        automatically - in the case of mixed strands on the sub-locations
        the overall strand is set to None.

        >>> f = CompoundLocation([SimpleLocation(3, 6, strand=+1),
        ...                       SimpleLocation(10, 13, strand=-1)])
        >>> print(f.strand)
        None
        >>> len(f)
        6
        >>> list(f)
        [3, 4, 5, 12, 11, 10]

        The example above doing list(f) iterates over the coordinates within the
        feature. This allows you to use max and min on the location, to find the
        range covered:

        >>> min(f)
        3
        >>> max(f)
        12

        More generally, you can use the compound location's start and end which
        give the full span covered, 0 <= start <= end <= full sequence length.

        >>> f.start == min(f)
        True
        >>> f.end == max(f) + 1
        True

        This is consistent with the behavior of the SimpleLocation for a single
        region, where again the 'start' and 'end' do not necessarily give the
        biological start and end, but rather the 'minimal' and 'maximal'
        coordinate boundaries.

        Note that adding locations provides a more intuitive method of
        construction:

        >>> f = SimpleLocation(3, 6, strand=+1) + SimpleLocation(10, 13, strand=-1)
        >>> len(f)
        6

        still part of the large exon - so the part order remains the same!

        Here is an artificial example, were the features map to the two upper

        24

        As you can see, this is a silly example where each "exon" is a word:

        >>> print(small.extract(dna).translate())
        SILLY
        >>> print(large.extract(dna).translate())
        EXAMPLE*
        >>> print(location.extract(dna).translate())

        ...     print(part.extract(dna).translate())
        ...
        SILLY
        EXAMPLE*

        Now, let's look at this from the reverse strand frame of reference:

        >>> flipped_dna = dna.reverse_complement()
        >>> flipped_location = location._flip(len(dna))
        >>> print(flipped_location.extract(flipped_dna).translate())
        SILLYEXAMPLE*
        >>> for part in flipped_location.parts:
        ...     print(part.extract(flipped_dna).translate())
        ...
        SILLY
        EXAMPLE*

        The key point here is the first part of the CompoundFeature is still the
        small exon, while the second part is still the large exon:

        >>> for part in flipped_location.parts:
        ...     print(len(part))
        ...
        15
        24
        >>> print(flipped_location)
        join{[37:52](-), [5:29](-)}

        Notice the parts are not reversed. However, there was a bug here in older
        versions of Biopython which would have given join{[5:29](-), [37:52](-)}
        and the translation would have wrongly been "EXAMPLE*SILLY" instead.

    This allows dealing with a location like ((11.14)..100). This
    indicates that the start of the sequence is somewhere between 11
    and 14. Since this is a start coordinate, it should act like
    it is at position 11 (or in Python counting, 10).

     - left - The start (left) position of the boundary
     - right - The end (right) position of the boundary

    This allows dealing with a position like 123^456. This
    indicates that the start of the sequence is somewhere between
    123 and 456. It is up to the parser to set the position argument
    to either boundary point (depending on if this is being used as
    a start or end of the feature). For example as a feature end:

    >>> p = BetweenPosition(456, 123, 456)
    >>> p
    BetweenPosition(456, left=123, right=456)
    >>> print(p)
    (123^456)
    >>> int(p)

    Integer equality and comparison use the given position,

    >>> p == 456
    True
    >>> p in [455, 456, 457]
    True
    >>> p > 300
    True

    The old legacy properties of position and extension give the
    starting/lower/left position as an integer, and the distance
    to the ending/higher/right position as an integer. Note that
    the position object will act like either the left or the right
    end-point depending on how it was created:

    >>> int(p) == int(p2)

    True

    >>> BetweenPosition(123, left=123, right=456) == ExactPosition(123)
    True
    >>> BetweenPosition(123, left=123, right=456) == BeforePosition(123)
    True
    >>> BetweenPosition(123, left=123, right=456) == AfterPosition(123)
