 * @class QualitativeSpecies
 * @sbmlbrief{qual} Extension of Species.
 *
 * Similarly to the Species in SBML, the components of qualitative models
 * refer to pools of entities that are considered indistinguishable and are
 * each located in a specific Compartment. However, here components are
 * characterised by their qualitative influences rather than by taking part
 * in reactions. Therefore, we define the QualitativeSpecies element to
 * represent such pools of entities.
 *
 * In a Petri net, qualitative species refer to the places of the model,
 * while in a logical model, they refer to the variables of this model
 * (i.e. nodes of the influence graph).
 *
 * A QualitativeSpecies describes a pool of indistinguishable entities in a
 * Compartment. It is associated with a level (an integer representing
 * e.g. an activity state, or a functional level of concentration, etc.)
 *
 * <!-- ------------------------------------------------------------------- -->
 * @class ListOfQualitativeSpecies
 * @sbmlbrief{qual} A list of QualitativeSpecies objects.
 *
 * The ListOfQualitativeSpecies is a container for the QualitativeSpecies elements of a Model.
