Smith Waterman Algorithm - python #1431

Closed Mayureshd-18 closed 1 year ago

Mayureshd-18 commented 1 year ago

The Smith-Waterman algorithm is a dynamic programming algorithm used to perform sequence alignment, particularly in bioinformatics. It is an improvement over the Needleman-Wunsch algorithm, as it allows for local sequence alignments and can handle sequences with different lengths.

The algorithm takes two sequences as input and calculates a score that represents their similarity or dissimilarity.
