If we're going with NAC as a substring we want, that opens plenty of nice options:

SNACC - Sequence Non-Alignment Compress & Compare BIO SNAC - Biological Sequence Non-Alignment Comparator

souravsingh commented 6 years ago

I like the name BIO SNAC

alexsweeten commented 6 years ago

I'm leaning towards SNAC. I think having bio as a prefix is a bit redundant.

souravsingh commented 6 years ago

In that case, SNACC would be a nice name.

Benjamin-Lee commented 6 years ago

Snacc it is!
