[Bioc-sig-seq] reduce in ShortRead

[Kasper Daniel Hansen]

L means integer (it is not obvious)

1 in R gets interpreted as a double, while 1L is an integer.  For many
use cases it doesn't matter, but on the other hand many people have
started to use L to indicate that they are specifically using integer
values.

If you have a variable, what you can do is
  as.integer(GAP)
