Defined in <seqan/sequence.h>
Signature IsContiguous<T>::Type; IsContiguous<T>::VALUE;

Detailed Description

A sequence container is "contiguous", if its elements are stored in a single contiguous array. Examples for contiguous sequences are AllocString or char arrays.

If an object obj is a contiguous sequence, then begin(obj) can be converted to a pointer to the first element of the content array.
