BioData, BioInputStream Object : Wish List

[prasad]

I need
header flag as an argument which inform about Header in a 2D Matrix
for example:

Code: Select all

BioData x("Filename.xt",TRUE);

- where the 2nd Argument indicates the the data has header which will be ignored / stored in a seperate header vector.

in BioInputStream : methods : which gives number of lines in the files, number of words, numbers of chars should be provided additionally to the ifstream parent object.

Code: Select all

BioInputStream x("filename.txt");
cout<<x.getNumberOfLines()<<endl;
cout<<x.getNumberOfWords()<<endl;
// we can think of over loading the getNuberOfWords, Chars, Lines with a string argument which is a pattern to be searched for.
cout<<x.getNumberOfCharacters()<<endl;
