NAME
       bl_fastx_qual_len() - Return length of FASTQ quality line, 0 if FASTA

LIBRARY
       #include	<biolibc/fastx.h>

SYNOPSIS
       size_t  bl_fastx_qual_len(bl_fastx_t *record)

ARGUMENTS
       record  Pointer to the bl_fastx_t structure

DESCRIPTION
       Return  the  length  of	the qual string	of a FASTQ record.  The	record
       must  be	  initialized	with   bl_fastx_init(3)	  and	populated   by
       bl_fastx_read(3)	or other means.	 If the	format if the FASTX  stream is
       FASTA, a	warning	is generated and 0 is returned.	 Previously used vari-
       ables may be reused to process another record in	the same format	(FASTA
       or FASTQ) or reinitialized by bl_fastx_free(3);

RETURN VALUES
       Length of the qual string

EXAMPLES
       bl_fastx_t  record = BL_FASTX_INIT;

       bl_fastx_init(stdin, &record);
       bl_fastx_read(stdin, &record);
       printf("Qual string length = %zun", bl_fastx_qual_len(&record));
       bl_fastx_free(&record);
