biopython v1.71.0 Bio.PopGen.GenePop.FileParser

Code to parse BIG GenePop files.

The difference between this class and the standard Bio.PopGen.GenePop.Record class is that this one does not read the whole file to memory. It provides an iterator interface, slower but consuming much mess memory. Should be used with big files (Thousands of markers and individuals).

See http://wbiomed.curtin.edu.au/genepop/ , the format is documented here: http://wbiomed.curtin.edu.au/genepop/help_input.html .
