I'm evaluating EQL for use in some sequence analysis software we are working on.
I'm having trouble figuring out two things:
(1) it seems order is always fixed in sequence queries. Is this correct? Can I, for instance, say that I'm searching for sequences with events A, B, and C, where A and B both preceed C, but can be any order relative to one another?
(2) It seems number is always fixed. Is this correct? Can I, for instance, express that I'm searching for an event matching specification A, followed by some indeterminate number of events matching specification B, followed by an event matching specification C, and get back for one sequence ABC, and for another ABBBBC?
Thanks,
Nathan
