Program gto_fastq_quality_score_info

The gto_fastq_quality_score_info analyses the quality-scores of a FASTQ file.

For help type:

./gto_fastq_quality_score_info -h


In the following subsections, we explain the input and output paramters.

Input parameters

The gto_fastq_quality_score_info program needs two streams for the computation, namely the input and output standard. The input stream is a FASTQ file.

The attribution is given according to:

Usage: ./gto_fastq_quality_score_info [options] [[--] args]
or: ./gto_fastq_quality_score_info [options]

It analyses the quality-scores of a FASTQ file.

-h, --help show this help message and exit

Basic options
< input.fastq Input FASTQ file format (stdin)
> output Output read information (stdout)

Optional
-m, --max= The lenght of the maximum window

Example: ./gto_fastq_quality_score_info -m < input.fastq > output

Output example :
Total reads : value
Max read length : value
Min read length : value
Min QS value : value
Max QS value : value
QS range : value


An example of such an input file is:

@111 071112_SLXA-EAS1_s_7:5:1:817:345 length=72 1

Output

The output of the gto_fastq_quality_score_info program is a set of information related to the file read.

Using the input above with the max window value as 30, an output example for this is the following:

Total reads : 2
Max read length : 72
Min read length : 72
Min QS value : 41
Max QS value : 73
QS range : 33
