Usage

// Creating a SequenceWithQuality object
DNA alpha;
SequenceWithQuality seq(&alpha);

// Create a FastQ parser
Fastq fq;

// Opening the file
std::ifstream in("reads.fastq");

// Read the sequences
while (fq.nextSequence(in, seq)) {
  // ... do something with the sequence ...
}

// Close the file
in.close();
