       User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send

   Support
       Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list:

       bioperl-l@bioperl.org

       rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will
       be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description
       of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.

APPENDIX

       The rest of the documentation details each of the object methods.  Internal methods are
       usually preceded with a _

   distance
        Title   : distance
        Usage   : my $distance_mat = $stats->distance(-align  => $aln,
                                                      -method => $method);
        Function: Calculates a distance matrix for all pairwise distances of
                  sequences in an alignment.
        Returns : Array ref
        Args    : -align  => Bio::Align::AlignI object
                  -method => String specifying specific distance method
                             (implementing class may assume a default)

   available_distance_methods
        Title   : available_distance_methods
        Usage   : my @methods = $stats->available_distance_methods();
        Function: Enumerates the possible distance methods
        Returns : Array of strings
        Args    : none
