# Semantic Description of `ReadSequencesBatchFromFiles` This function implements **concurrent, batched streaming** of biological sequences from multiple input files. ## Core Functionality - **Input**: A slice of file paths (`[]string`), an optional batch reader interface, and a concurrency level. - **Default behavior**: Uses `ReadSequencesFromFile` if no custom reader is provided. ## Concurrency Model - Launches `concurrent_readers` goroutines to process files in parallel. - Files are distributed via a shared channel (`filenameChan`) — ensuring fair load balancing. ## Streaming Interface - Returns an `obiiter.IBioSequence`, a streaming iterator over batches of biological sequences. - Internally uses an atomic counter (`nextCounter`) to assign unique, ordered IDs to sequence batches (via `Reorder`), preserving global order despite parallelism. ## Error Handling & Logging - Panics on file-open failure (via `log.Panicf`). - Logs start/end of reading per file using structured logging (`log.Printf`, `log.Println`). ## Resource Management - Uses a barrier pattern: each reader goroutine calls `batchiter.Done()` upon completion. - A finalizer goroutine waits for all readers (`WaitAndClose`) and logs termination. ## Design Intent - Enables scalable, memory-efficient ingestion of large NGS datasets. - Decouples *reading logic* (via `IBatchReader`) from orchestration — supporting pluggable formats. - Prioritizes throughput and deterministic ordering over strict FIFO per-file semantics. ## Key Abstractions | Type/Interface | Role | |----------------|------| | `IBatchReader` | Reader factory: `(filename, options...) → SequenceIterator` | | `obiiter.IBioSequence` | Thread-safe batch iterator (push model) | | `AtomicCounter` | Ensures globally unique, sequential batch IDs across goroutines |
