        use NGS::Tools::BAMSurgeon::Helper;

        # You also have access to the following functions:

        # Like print, but includes a newline automatically
        say("Hello!");

        # both of these pretty print variable contents, even if they are arrays, hashes, nested, etc.
        # (formatted printing via Data::Dump)
        pretty_print(\@my_array);
        # [2, 3, { 5 => 7 }]
        dump(\@my_array);
