lib5c.parsers.loops module

Module for parsing tables containing categorized loop information.

lib5c.parsers.loops.load_loops(loopsfile)

Reads categorized loop file into nested dict structure.

Parameters:loopsfile (str) – String reference to the loop file to parse. Each line in the loop file corresponds to one loop. The lines are tab-separated. with four columns. These are, in order, the category the loop was categorized into (as a string), the region name the loop is in (as a string), the x-coordinate of the pixel which represents the loop (as an int), and the y-coordinate of the pixel which represent the loop (as an int). Returns:The outer keys are loop categories as strings. The next level’s keys are region names as strings. The innermost dicts represent loops. These inner loop dicts have the following structure:

{
    'x': int,
    'y': int
}

The ints represent the x and y coordinate, respectively, of the loop within the region.

Return type:dict of dicts of dicts
