gap length #49

Good morning, I have used gfastats to analyze some metrics of a de novo genome assembly, it has been very useful! But I have a question about gaps, from what length of N does gfastats consider there to be a gap?

Thank you very much, Karen :)

Hi Karen! @ksc289 Glad to hear it. Even just a 1 bp N will be considered a gap, ie. contigs can only be made of ACGT bases All the best Giulio
