reader = MAFReader("test.maf")

# for reading compressed file
reader = MAFReader("test.maf", compression='gzip')

data = reader.read()

print(reader.headers) # ['col1', 'col2', 'col3']
print(next(data)) # [[1,2,3], [4,5,6], [7,8,9]]

# return only certain columns
data = reader.read(use_cols=['col1','col3'])

print(reader.headers) # ['col1', 'col3']
print(next(data)) # [[1,3], [4,6], [7,9]]

# for big files use chunks
data = reader.read(chunk_size=2)

print(next(data)) #[[1,2,3], [4,5,6]]
print(next(data)) #[[7,8,9]]

row1 = [1,2,3]
row2 = [4,5,6]
row3 = [7,8,9]
data = [cols, row1, row2, row3]
