#' DISTAL object class constructor
#'
#' This class constructor is used to create instances of DISTAL object
#' to be used in GMQL JOIN operations (RGMQL merge functions) that use 
#' genometric predicate parameter requiring distal condition on value
#' 
#' \itemize{
#' \item{DL: It denotes the less distance clause, 
#' which selects all the regions of a joined experiment dataset sample such 
#' that their distance from the anchor region of the joined reference dataset 
#' sample is less than 'value' bases.}
#' \item{DLE: It denotes the less equal distance clause, 
#' which selects all the regions of a joined experiment dataset sample such 
#' that their distance from the anchor region of the joined reference dataset 
#' sample is less than, or equal to, 'value' bases.}
#' \item{DG: It denotes the great distance clause, 
#' which selects all the regions of a joined experiment dataset sample such 
#' that their distance from the anchor region of the joined reference dataset 
#' sample is greater than 'value' bases. }
#' \item{DGE: It denotes the great equal distance clause, 
#' which selects all the regions of a joined experiment dataset sample such 
#' that their distance from the anchor region of the joined reference dataset 
#' sample is greater than, or equal to, 'value' bases.}
#' \item{MD: It denotes the minimum distance clause, which selects 
#' the first 'value' regions of the joined experiment at minimial distance 
#' from the anchor region of the joined reference dataset sample.}
#' \item{UP: It denotes the upstream direction of the genome.
#' It makes predicates to be hold on the upstream of the regions of the joined 
#' reference dataset sample.
#' UP is true when region of the joined experiment dataset sample is in the
#' upstream genome of the anchor region of the joined reference dataset sample.
#' When this clause is not present, distal conditions apply to both 
#' directions of the genome.}
#' \item{DOWN:  It denotes the downstream direction of the genome.
#' It makes predicates to be hold on the downstream of the regions of the 
#' joined reference dataset sample.
#' DOWN is true when region of the joined experiment dataset sample is in the
#' downstream genome of the anchor region of the joined reference dataset 
#' sample. When this clause is not present, distal conditions apply to both 
#' directions of the genome.}
