In that case, you might be glad to know that Marshall Hampton is updating Biopython as an optional package of Sage. Biopython is a Python package for research and study in bioinformatics. Its website is http://biopython.org/wiki/Main_Page and the ticket to update Biopython in Sage is http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/6634 -- Regards Minh Van Nguyen --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
