AminoAcid seq::Codon::translate (  const NTSequence::const_iterator  triplet  )  [static]

Translate a nucleotide triplet (given by the range starting and the indicated start point in a NTSequence) into an AminoAcid. If the triplet is three gaps, then the result is AminoAcid::GAP. If the triplet contains ambiguity codes or gaps, then the result is AminoAcid::X. Otherwise, the result is the translated amino acid.
