Converter: Converter reference class

Description

Description

An object of type Converter is used to efficiently convert data from the segmental to the genotypic representation. This class has two methods that should be employed by the user: insert_founder and convert. Please look up their documentation with help(Converter$insert_founder) and help(Converter$convert). Before starting conversion, all founder alleles and founder genotypes have to be added via the method insert_founder. Conversion is then done by the method convert.

The constructor has two parameters, positions and use_names (optional, defaults to FALSE). Parameter positions must be a list of vectors with the genetic positions. If these vectors are named, and if use_names is TRUE, the result of a conversion via convert will also be named.

Please see the vignette (vignette('Introduction', package = 'Meiosis')) for an example.
