💖 Bio::Search::GenericStatistics 💖

okay bestie, so this page lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, and the module is literally called Bio::Search::GenericStatistics — it's an object for statistics ✨ and honestly? it does exactly what it says on the tin. no notes.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

Bio::Search::GenericStatistics — an object for statistics, periodt.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bestie here's the whole vibe in two lines:

my $void   = $obj->set_statistic("statistic_name","statistic_value");
my $value  = $obj->get_statistic("statistic_name");

set it, get it, slay 💅 that's the whole relationship.

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

This is a basic container to hold the statistics that came back from a program. that's it. that's the girl. it holds the numbers. she's not doing anything fancy, she's just holding them. main character energy in the most minimal way possible 🫶

📖 APPENDIX 📖

the rest of the documentation details each of the object methods. internal methods are usually preceded with a _ (iykyk, that's the secret underscore language 🤫)

⭐ get_statistic

Title   : get_statistic
Usage   : $statistic_object->get_statistic($statistic_name);
Function: Get the value of a statistic named $statistic_name
Returns : A scalar that should be a string
Args    : A scalar that should be a string

you hand her a name, she hands you back the value. a scalar that should be a string, both in and out. iconic 💅

⭐ set_statistic

Title   : set_statistic
Usage   : $statistic_object->set_statistic($statistic_name => $statistic_value);
Function: Set the value of a statistic named $statistic_name to $statistic_value
Returns : Void
Args    : A hash containing name=>value pairs

you give her name and value pairs (a whole hash of them, bestie, go off), she sets them. returns Void — she gives you nothing back and that's valid 🌸

⭐ available_statistics

Title   : available_statistics
Usage   : my @statnames = $statistic_object->available_statistics
Function: Returns the names of the available statistics
Returns : list of available statistic names
Args    : none

no args, just vibes — she returns you the list of every statistic name she's holding. window shopping for statistics, obsessed 🔥
