This is an eclectic collection of basic C++ code (functions, classes, templates) which is shared between a few of my bioinformatics projects. The main idea was to provide a core collection of data structures, trying to avoid unnecessary code dependencies of other heavy libraries, while minimizing build time.

I had started gathering this code even before the C++ STL had been fully adopted as a cross-platform "standard". Even STL itself seems a bit on the heavy side (and keeps growing) compared to what I need in practice for many of my C++ projects, so often times I prefer to just use these simpler and leaner C++ classes and templates to provide most common data structures needed for my projects.

Do not build. Do not install. This is not meant to be built into an object library, it's a simple source code library for other projects to include and link statically into the final executable(s). The makefile included here is just for simple, extemporaneous tests I occasionally perform as new functionality is added to this code collection.
