Having difficulties understanding SMETANA codes #113

Closed White-Shinobi closed 2 years ago

White-Shinobi commented 2 years ago

Hi Francisco,

I tired to check the SMETANA codes to understand the software's logics. And I found the smetana.py are using functions from a package called reframed from Daniel Machado. But I can not find resources to indicate the functions in Reframed. May I ask do you know where I can learn about the functions in reframed or some explanations for SMETANA codes?

Best, Yue

Hi Yue,

You may find the SMETANA GitHub repo and associated code here. Please also have a look at the accompanying paper. Reframed is the metabolic modelling package that Daniel developed, and is used by a number of his tools.

Hope this helps! Best, Francisco
