Description 


            The number of strands in the sheet. If a given range of residues
             is bulged out from the strands, it is still counted as one strand.
             If a strand is composed of two different regions of polypeptide,
             it is still counted as one strand, so long as the proper hydrogen
             bonding connections are made to adjacent strands.
