Ignore the python portion of the problem for now.

Imagine someone handed you a piece of paper with the letters
"AAATAGCAGAAATAAAAGAAAAGATTGGAACTAGGTCAG" written on it, and asked you to
circle the section that you're trying to identify.  How would you do it,
without using a computer?  How do you figure out where there was a
mutation, and then how do you discover if that location is in a polymer
region?

If you can describe that process to us, maybe we can help you turn that
into a python program.
