Hi,
I have to write my first Perl script . This scripts Searches for rare = codons in nucleotide sequence . The nucleotide sequence is entered by = the user in the format "ATTGCAA.." and then the program breaks this = sequence in the groups of three alphabets like ATT,GCA...so no.=20
Please suggest .
Please dont piggy back post - it breaks the thread of the original conversation.
If the data will always be "three" - maybe this will give you an idea:
@array = split(//, 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMONPQRSTUVWXYZ');
my $index = -1;
while($#array > $index) { print "\nSet $index "; print $array[++$index]; print $array[++$index]; print $array[++$index]; }
and so on... -Bill- __Sx__________________________________________ http://youve-reached-the.endoftheinternet.org/
