Detailed Description

The generic alphabet concept that covers most data types used in ranges.

This is the core alphabet concept that many other alphabet concepts refine.

It defines the requirements for the rank interface and the character interface, as well as the requirement for size and comparability. For more details, see the Alphabet module.

For the purpose of concept checking the types t & and t && are also considered to satisfy seqan3::alphabet_concept if the type t satisfies it.

Serialisation

Types that satisfy the concept (and all refinements) can be serialised via SeqAn3 serialisation support. The rank value is (de-)serialised, types need not provide any overloads themselves.

Concepts and doxygen

The requirements for this concept are given as related functions and metafunctions. Types that satisfy this concept are shown as "implementing this interface".
