bool BaseComposition::updateComposition	(	unsigned int	rawSequenceCharIndex,
		char	baseChar
	)

Update the composition for the specified index with the specified character.

Returns:

false if the character is not a valid raw sequence character, true if it is valid.

Definition at line 32 of file BaseComposition.cpp.

References BaseAsciiMap::getBaseIndex(), and BaseAsciiMap::resetPrimerCount().

{
   bool validIndex  = true;

   // Each time we return to index 0, reset the primer count in the base/ascii
   // map.
   if(rawSequenceCharIndex == 0)
   {
      myBaseAsciiMap.resetPrimerCount();
   }

   // Check to see if the vector size is already sized to include this 
   // index.  If it is not sized appropriately, add entries until it contains
   // the rawSequenceCharIndex.
   while(rawSequenceCharIndex >= myBaseCountVector.size())
   {
      // Add an entry of the base count array object to the vector.
      BaseCount baseCountEntry;
      myBaseCountVector.push_back(baseCountEntry);
   }

   // Get the base info for the specified character. 
   int baseIndex = myBaseAsciiMap.getBaseIndex(baseChar);
   
   // Increment the count for the given character.  This method returns false
   // if the character's index falls outside the range of the base array.
   // This relies on the myBaseAsciiMap indexes and the BaseCOunt object array
   // to use the same indexing values for valid bases.
   validIndex = 
      myBaseCountVector[rawSequenceCharIndex].incrementCount(baseIndex);
   
   // Return whether or not the specified character was valid.
   return(validIndex);
