Bio::Map::MappableI is an object that can be placed in a map.

SYNOPSIS

# get a Bio::Map::MappableI somehow
my $position = $element->map_position();
# these methods will be important for building sorted lists
if( $position->equals($p2) ) {
# do something
} elsif( $position->less_tha($p2) ) {}
elsif( $position->greater_than($p2) ) { }

This object handles the generic notion of an element placed on a (linear) Map. Elements can have multiple positions in a map such as is the case of Restriction enzyme cut sites on a sequence map. For exact information about an element's position in a map one must query the associate PositionI object which is accessible through the position() method.
