/**
 * Created by jcarey on 3/13/14.
 *
 * Illumina uses an algorithm described in "Theory of RTA" that determines whether or not a cluster passes filter("PF") or not.
 * These values are written as sequential bytes to Filter Files.  The structure of a filter file is as follows:
 * Bytes 0-3  : 0
 * Bytes 4-7  : unsigned int version
 * Bytes 8-11 : unsigned int numClusters
 * Bytes 12...: boolean encoded in a byte representing whether the cluster passing or failing.
