generate_paired_reads: Generate paired reads from a given genome

In jkruppa/kmerPyramid: kmerPyramid: an interactive visualization tool for nucleobase and \textit{k}-mer frequencies

Description

The function generates two files with paired reads

Usage

generate_paired_reads(numReads = 10, initSequence, readLength = 150,
  readMeanDist = 50, files, parallel_flag = FALSE)

Arguments

numReads	Number of wanted reads
initSequence	Original genome sequence to draw reads from
readLength	Wanted read length in bases
readMeanDist	Mean distance between the paired reads (default = 50)
files	Vector of two named files ("R1", "R2") to save the generated reads
parallel_flag	Should everything done in parallel (not recommended).

Details

The generated files (R1 and R2) are generated by drawing the wanted reads from a given initial genome sequence
