`Floating point exception` on small input sequences with low target coverage #10

Open dlaehnemann opened 6 years ago

dlaehnemann commented 6 years ago

E.g. when running the example input with a low target coverage of 10, MDAsim gives a Floating point exception:

cd examples
mdasim --input=example_input.fa --primers=primerList.fasta --coverage=10 --output=example_mdasim_out_prefix_ >example_mdasim.log

@Vsack and I are assuming these are numerical issues somewhere in the code, but have not investigated where. This is an issue to track this problem. Either we find some time to resolve it in the future, or someone else feels like a round of investigation.
