Hi everyone Thanks for your support and help I have a question. I am interested in understanding the wiggle format. I was going through this : http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/wiggle.html
Can you explain me what does the last paragraph means *Caution for sparse variableStep data* *The wiggle format was designed for quickly displaying data that is quite dense. The variableStep format, in particular, becomes very inefficient when there are only a few data points per 1,024 bases. If variableStep data points (i.e., chromStarts) are greater than about 100 bases apart, it is advisable to use BedGraph<http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/bedgraph.html> format.* * * What do we mean by *variablestep data points* referred above. It would be nice if you can explain this Moreover can you suggest me how can we convert wiggle file into a bed file Thanks in advance Regards VARUN _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - [email protected] https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
