ManyToOneTranslationTable (biojava-legacy 1.9.5 API)

All Superinterfaces:

TranslationTable

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractManyToOneTranslationTable, SimpleGeneticCodeTable, SimpleManyToOneTranslationTable
```
public interface ManyToOneTranslationTable
extends TranslationTable
```
A translation table that will handle the many-to-one mappings that you see, for example, with genetic codes.
It differs from a ReversibleTranslationTable in that the reverse translation returns a Set of Symbols in the source alphabet that translate to give that Symbol in the target Alphabet.
