[Biococoa-dev] 2 BCSequenceDNA questions

[John Timmer]

I've actually deleted them and committed the changes, because I noticed
that, too. You may want to check the status before doing more work.

The point for those files was just to put my ideas in place so you could see
which ones overlapped with yours for the protein sequence and move them to
the base class.  I didn't implement most things, so I commented out the code
just to make sure it didn't mess with the compiling.

One problem I'm foreseeing, though:
When we init a sequence with a string, how do we tell it which objects to
use, nucleotides or amino acids?

Not sure about how to handle this gracefully...
