Biobase.Constants

Define several constants used throughout all libraries depending on Biobase.

energy Infinities for Int's

eInf :: Int

maxBound on Int is problematic, if we try something like maxBound + maxBound which happens very often. eInf is used for settings like lookup tables, etc while comparisons are against eMax. Both values need to be small enough not to overflow in typical situations.

eMax :: Int

floating infinity

fInf :: Double
