"""Tools for sequence motif analysis.

Bio.motifs contains the core Motif class containing various I/O methods
as well as methods for motif comparisons and motif searching in sequences.
It also includes functionality for parsing output from the AlignACE, MEME,
and MAST programs, as well as files in the TRANSFAC format.

    Currently supported formats (case is ignored):
     - AlignAce:         AlignAce output file format
     - ClusterBuster:    Cluster Buster position frequency matrix format
     - XMS:              XMS matrix format
     - MEME:             MEME output file motif
     - MINIMAL:          MINIMAL MEME output file motif
     - MAST:             MAST output file motif
     - TRANSFAC:         TRANSFAC database file format
     - pfm-four-columns: Generic position-frequency matrix format with four columns. (cisbp, homer, hocomoco, neph, tiffin)
     - pfm-four-rows:    Generic position-frequency matrix format with four row. (scertf, yetfasco, hdpi, idmmpmm, flyfactor survey)
     - pfm:              JASPAR-style position-frequency matrix
     - jaspar:           JASPAR-style multiple PFM format
     - sites:            JASPAR-style sites file

    As files in the pfm and sites formats contain only a single motif,
    it is easier to use Bio.motifs.read() instead of Bio.motifs.parse()
    for those.

    For example:

    >>> from Bio import motifs
    >>> with open("motifs/alignace.out") as handle:
    ...     for m in motifs.parse(handle, "AlignAce"):
    ...         print(m.consensus)

    AGCGCGCGTG
    GCCGGTTGCTGTTCATTAGG
    ACCGACGGCAGCTAAAAGGG
    GACGCCGGGGAT
    CGACTCGCGCTTACAAGG

    If strict is True (default), the parser will raise a ValueError if the
    file contents does not strictly comply with the specified file format.
