<h1><a href="https://redmine.open-bio.org/issues/2509#change-15354">Bug #2509: Deprecating the .data property of the Seq and MutableSeq objects</a></h1>
<ul><li>Author: Peter Cock</li>
<li>Status: Closed</li>
<li>Priority: Normal</li>
<li>Assignee: Vincent Davis</li>
<li>Category: Main Distribution</li>
<li>Target version: Not Applicable</li>
<li>URL: </li></ul>
<p>In anticipation that the Seq and MutableSeq objects will eventually subclass the python string, their data property is not needed and confusing. The following patch will replace it with a new-class style property methods and a docstring declaring it to be deprecated.</p>
<p>In the case of the Seq object, the sequence should be read only but the user can currently modify the data property in place.</p>
<p>In the case of the MutableSeq, the fact that it is internally an array of characters should be a private implementation detail.</p>
