Hi, The explanation you have given isn't good enough to get us anywhere.
What are the possible patterns? Do you have a fixed number of As you're looking out for? What defines a polymer region? The different DNA samples, how are they separated? With commas, new lines etc? You can do a line by line explanation and we could get some people in here to help you get python codes to achieve what you just explained. Regards.
