_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     This function accepts a character string representing the base
     sequence of the DNA for a gene and computes the counts of each
     base.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     basecontent(seq)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

     seq: Character vector.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     Each element of 'x' is separately decomposed into its base
     sequence components.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     A matrix with 4 columns and 'length(x)' rows. The columns are
     names 'A', 'C', 'T', 'G', and the values in each column are the
     counts of the corresponding bases in the elements of 'x'. 

     The elements of 'x' can be in upper case, lower case or mixed.

_A_u_t_h_o_r(_s):

     R. Gentleman, W. Huber

_S_e_e _A_l_s_o:

     'complementSeq','reverseSeq'

_E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s:

      v<-c("AAACT", "GGGTT", "ggAtT")
      basecontent(v)
