=head1 NAME

Bio::Symbol::Alphabet - BSANE/BioCORBA compliant symbol list alphabet

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  {
      my $alphabet = Bio::Symbols::Alphabet->new(-symbols => [ @s ],
  						-subalphabets => [ @alphas ] );

      my @symbols = $alphabet->symbols;
      my @subalphas = $alphabet->alphabets;
      if( $alphabet->contains($symbol) ) {
  	  # do something
      }
  }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Alphabet contains set of symbols, which can be concatenated to
form symbol lists. Sequence string, for example, is stringified
representation of the symbol list (tokens of symbols).

This module was implemented for the purposes of meeting the
BSANE/BioCORBA spec 0.3 only.
