People say that interviews at Google will cover as much ground as possible. As a new college graduate, the ground that I must capture are the following. Part of the list is borrowed from a reddit post: https://www. reddit.com/r/cscareerquestions/comments/206ajq/my_onsite_interview_experience_at_google/ #bottom-comments.

1. Data structures

2. Trees and Graph algorithms

3. Dynamic Programming

4. Recursive algorithms

5. Scheduling algorithms (Greedy)

6. Caching 1

7. Sorting

8. Files

9. Computability

10. Bitwise operators

11. System design

In this tutorial series article, I will explore features and packages of python which are widely used in the big data, NGS, and bioinformatics. I will also walk through a real biological example which shows NGS data processing with the help of python packages and programming.

Python has a couple of points to recommend it to biologists and scientists specifically:

• It's widely used in the scientific community
• It has a couple of very well designed libraries for doing complex scientific computing (although we won't encounter them in this book)
• It lend itself well to being integrated with other, existing tools
• It has features which make it easy to manipulate strings of characters (for example, strings of DNA bases and protein amino acid residues, which we as biologists are particularly fond of)

In general, following are some of the important features of python which makes it a perfect fit for rapid application development.

• Python is interpreted language so the program does not need to be compiled. Interpreter parses the program code and generates the output.
• Python is dynamically typed, so the variables types are defined automatically.
• Python is strongly typed. So the developers need to cast the type manually.
• Less code and more use makes it more acceptable.
• Python is portable, extendable and scalable.

There are two major Python versions, Python 2 and Python 3. Python 2 and 3 are quite different. This tutorial uses Python 3, because it more semantically correct and supports newer features.

I will post tutorial on daily basis on this page. Check the sub-pages on right side.

This collection highlights important statistical issues that biologists should be aware of and provides practical advice to help them improve the rigor of their work.

Nature Methods' Points of Significance column on statistics explains many key statistical and experimental design concepts. Other resources include an online plotting tool and links to statistics guides from other publishers.

Install

pip install genomenotebook

How to use

Create a simple genome browser with a search bar. The sequence appears when zooming in.

import genomenotebook as gn

g=gn.GenomeBrowser(genome_path, gff_path, init_pos=10000)
g.show()

Tracks can be added to visualize your favorite genomics data. See Examples for more !!!!
