Learning to program is one of the best investments that you can make for your research and your career. Python for biologists is a complete programming course for beginners that will give you the skills you need to tackle common biological and bioinformatics problems. Why learn programming? Maybe you see colleagues writing programs to save time and deal with large datasets. Maybe your supervisor has told you that you need to learn programming for your next project. Maybe you ve been looking at job ads and noticed just how many of them are asking for programming skills. Table of contents In chapter one, you ll learn why Python is a good choice for biologists and beginners alike. You ll also learn how to install Python for your operating system and how to set up your programming environment, complete with links to all the free software you ll need. In chapter two, you ll learn how to manipulate text (including DNA and protein sequences) and how to fix errors in your programs. Exercises: calculating AT content, splicing introns. In chapter three, you ll learn how to read and write data to and from files. You ll also learn how to deal with file paths and the FASTA file format.Exercises: splitting genomic DNA, writing a FASTA file. In chapter four, you ll learn how to process many pieces of data in a single program and more advanced tools for sequence manipulation. Exercises: trimming adapter sequences, concatenating exons. In chapter five, you ll learn how to make Python even more useful by creating your own functions, including the best ways to test those functions in order to speed up development. Exercises: Analyzing the amino acid composition of protein sequences. In chapter six, you ll learn how to write programs that can make smart decisions about how to handle data and how to make your programs follow complex rules. Exercises: filtering genes based on multiple criteria. In chapter seven, you ll learn an incredibly powerful tool for working with patterns in text -
