It's unclear to me what is the difference betwen MinimizerQueue and ImplicitMinimizerQueue.

RagnarGrootKoerkamp commented 1 month ago

Oh I see; the implicit one also returns positions. Somewhat confusing naming :sweat_smile:

Hi Ragnar! Yes it only stores the hashes and the positions, not the k-mers themselves. This is slightly better if we only need the positions of the minimizers, e.g. for t-mers in mod-minimizers. Sorry for the naming, I didn't have much inspiration at the time 😅
