Bioconductor version: 2.5
The IRanges class and its extensions are low-level containers for storing sets of integer ranges. A typical use of these containers in biology is for representing a set of chromosome regions. More specific extensions of the IRanges class will typically allow the storage of additional information attached to each chromosome region as well as a hierarchical relationship between these regions.
