Detailed Description

template<writable_alphabet sequence_alphabet_t>
requires std::regular<sequence_alphabet_t>
class seqan3::masked< sequence_alphabet_t >

Implementation of a masked composite, which extends a given alphabet with a mask.

Template Parameters

sequence_alphabet_t

Type of the first letter; must satisfy seqan3::writable_alphabet and std::regular.

The masked composite represents a seqan3::alphabet_tuple_base of any given alphabet with the masked alphabet. It allows one to specify which portions of a sequence should be masked, without losing additional information by replacing the sequence directly.
