This document describes a microbial genomics tool in beta version 1.0 created by Mr. Rajendra Kumar Verma and Mr. Kishore Shende Sir. The tool takes a FASTA format input file, which is a text-based format used to represent nucleotide or peptide sequences. It provides outputs in both text and Microsoft Excel formats, including nucleotide composition, amino acid composition, and other metrics.

? In bioinformatics, FASTA format is a text-
based format for representing either
nucleotide sequences or peptide sequences, in
which nucleotides or amino acids are
represented using single-letter codes. The
format also allows for sequence names and
comments to precede the sequences. The
format originates from the FASTA software
package, but has now become a standard in
the field of bioinformatics.
? A sequence in FASTA format begins with a single-line
description, followed by lines of sequence data. The
description line is distinguished from the sequence data
by a greater-than (">") symbol in the first column. The
word following the ">" symbol is the identifier of the
sequence, and the rest of the line is the description
(both are optional). There should be no space between
the ">" and the first letter of the identifier. It is
recommended that all lines of text be shorter than 80
characters. The sequence ends if another line starting
with a ">" appears; this indicates the start of another
sequence. A simple example of one sequence in
FASTA format:
