fasta or fastq? #38

Closed PeymanDerik closed 1 year ago

PeymanDerik commented 1 year ago

Hi

In the tutorial for Taxonomic-Profiling-Diamond-Megan, it says "Include all input HiFi fasta files (SAMPLE.fasta) in the inputs/ folder", but the files I received from PacBio are fq.gz. Should I change the format of the files?!!

Thanks

Hello @PeymanDerik , Yes the required format is fasta. If you are looking for a simple tool for converting formats I recommend seqtk.
