Some programs for Wednesday October 9

Here are two things you've requested: blastN3.pl, a commented version of the BlastN program, and gb2fa.pl, a complete program that translates from GenBank to FastA format, creating both a protein file and a nucleotide file. It's much simpler than BlastN, and more complicated than bottles.pl. It might even be useful.

There is also a sample GenBank file, record.gb for testing the script.

Here are also eight preliminary versions of gb2fa.pl. After I wrote the first draft, I made a copy before I fixed each mistake, recording my errors for posterity (and your edification).

gb2fa.0.pl gb2fa.1.pl gb2fa.2.pl gb2fa.3.pl gb2fa.4.pl gb2fa.5.pl gb2fa.6.pl gb2fa.7.pl
