NAME

       Bio::Matrix::IO::phylip - A parser for PHYLIP distance matricies

SYNOPSIS

         use Bio::Matrix::IO;
         my $parser = Bio::Matrix::IO->new(-format   => 'phylip',
                                          -file     => 't/data/phylipdist.out');
         my $matrix = $parser->next_matrix;

DESCRIPTION

       This is a parser for PHYLIP distance matrix output.

       User feedback is an integral part of the evolution of this and other Bioperl modules. Send
       your comments and suggestions preferably to the Bioperl mailing list.  Your participation
       is much appreciated.

   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.

       usually preceded with a _

   new
        Title   : new
        Usage   : my $obj = Bio::Matrix::IO::phylip->new();
        Function: Builds a new Bio::Matrix::IO::phylip object
        Returns : an instance of Bio::Matrix::IO::phylip
        Args    :

   next_matrix
        Title   : next_matrix
        Usage   : my $matrix = $parser->next_matrix
        Function: Get the next result set from parser data
        Returns : L<Bio::Matrix::PhylipDist>
        Args    : none

   write_matrix
        Title   : write_matrix
        Usage   : $matio->write_matrix($matrix)
        Function: Write out a matrix in the phylip distance format
        Returns : none
        Args    : L<Bio::Matrix::PhylipDist>
