The document discusses Samuel Lampa's first encounter with the programming language Elixir. It covers calculating GC ratios in DNA sequences, provides a DNA sequence example file, and compares Elixir processes to Go channels, noting that Elixir processes are named mailboxes tied to a process while Go channels are anonymous and separate from routines. The document is authored by Samuel Lampa from Uppsala University.
First encounter with Elixir - Some random things
- 1. First encounter with Elixir A few impressions and thoughts Samuel Lampa Uppsala University @smllmp bionics.it
- 2. GC ratio calculation DNA has four letters (bases): A, C, G, T GC ratio is the: ratio of Gs and Cs, compared to As and Ts. Sequences are stored in ASCII text files, with around 80 characters per line. Header lines in the file start with > and should be skipped. Unknown bases are denoted with N.
- 3. DNA Fasta file example
- 4. GC ratio calculation in Python
- 6. GC ratio c alculation in Elixir
- 8. Elixir processes vs Go channels Elixir processes: Named mailboxes Mailbox and process tied together Go channels Anonymous, no name Channels are separate from go routines (can be sent around, sent to functions etc). More?
