_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     This file contains the empirical distribution of segment lengths
     (of tiled regions and whose state mean indicates that they
     correspond to regions of copy number gain or loss) derived by
     applying the DNAcopy segmentation scheme (Olshen et al., 2004) to
     an unpublished breast cancer dataset. Instead of using the
     physical length of the segments we calculate the lengths as a
     proportion of the length of the tiled region.
