## Artificial Human Chromosome for Testing Purposes

### Description

A `GRanges` object defining a minimalistic artificial human chromosome with 200,000 bp length

### Usage

    hgA

### Format

Real human genome-based examples would require the supply of massive data and would require lengthy computation times. Therefore, the examples supplied with this package are based on a small single-chromosome artificial genome. The `GRanges` object `hgA` provides a description of this artificial genome that can be used for further processing, e.g. by the `partitionRegions` function.
