Row (inherits from WellSet)

Description

Represents a single row of wells within a labware item, such as row 'A', 'B', etc. Provides structured access to wells that belong to the same horizontal row.

Constructor

Row(wells: Dict[str, Well], identifier: str)

Initializes a Row with a dictionary of wells and the row's identifier.

Parameter	Type	Description
wells	Dict[str, Well]	Dictionary of wells belonging to the row, keyed by well names.
identifier	str	Name of the row (e.g., 'A', 'B').

Properties

Property	Type	Description
identifier	str	Label of the row (e.g., 'A', 'B', 'C').

Methods

(Inherits all methods from WellSet.)

Short Example

# Create wells manually
well_a1 = Well(name="A1", depth=10, totalLiquidVolume=360, shape="circular", x=0, y=0, z=0)
well_a2 = Well(name="A2", depth=10, totalLiquidVolume=360, shape="circular", x=10, y=0, z=0)

# Create a Row
row_a = Row(wells={"A1": well_a1, "A2": well_a2}, identifier="A")

# Access a well
a1 = row_a["A1"]

# List all wells
print(row_a)

Important Notes

• Row behaves exactly like a WellSet, but includes additional semantic meaning by tracking the row label (identifier).
• Supports access by well name or index, as with WellSet.
• Useful for row-based operations like pipetting across a row.
