Bio::D...erator(3pm)

💖 Bio::DB::GFF::Adaptor::dbi::iterator 💖

okay so bestie, this is a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of the manual, and it's all about Bio::DB::GFF::Adaptor::dbi::iterator — yes the name is a whole mouthful, we're just gonna roll with it 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

Bio::DB::GFF::Adaptor::dbi::iterator — the iterator for Bio::DB::GFF::Adaptor::dbi, no cap

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

For internal use only

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. it's giving "we're not explaining, we're just existing" 😭

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so basically, this is an internal module — like, backstage, behind-the-curtain, not-for-you-to-touch kinda energy 👑

The Bio::DB::GFF DBI adaptor uses it to hand back an iterator that walks across a sequence feature query. Think of it as your little scroll through the results, one feature at a time, slay ✨

The object has exactly one method:

• next_feature() — gives you the next feature from the query. that's its whole job and it does it beautifully 🫶

and also:

• next_seq() — this one is literally just an alias for next_feature(). same method, different name, matching outfits, iconic behavior 💖
