Short description of project #78

Closed Benjamin-Lee closed 6 years ago

Benjamin-Lee commented 6 years ago

For the GitHub project description and Sphinx docs, what is our short project description?

Currently, it is:

BIOlogical implementation of the Normalized Compression Distance

Do we want to change it to:

Biological implementation of normalized compression distance

Or something else entirely now that the project name isn't BioNCD?

NCD for alignment free comparison.

wilcas commented 6 years ago

I think NCD for alignment free biological sequence comparison, or something to that effect, is good. As long as it includes the distance and that we are applying it towards biological sequences (faa fasta)

"Normalized compression distance for alignment-free biological sequence comparison" it is.

@SweetiePi, can you change the repo description?

Maybe a 🗜, 🧬 (DNA emoji, not currently visible on Macs) or 🌭 is in order.
