so… I've become a statistician, its really flattering that some people want my advice on analyzing the data, but my field of expertise is Computer Science… I mean I do not have a problem with explaining to any audience the Burrows-Wheeler transform of the human genome which obviously has a purpose of lexicographic indexing of aforementioned genome and thus speeding up the search for exact matches… but statistics???

uuuugh…
I just think that my professors need entertainment and they use me and my ignorance, or speaking plainly: my stupidity, for cheap laughs and for diffusing stressful situations…

grrrrrr…

well…

anybody has any ideas how to refine Simpson or Shannon diversity theories for a population of mutant alleles?

my chromosomal recombination simulator on hold, *sigh*

estimated CpG count after 3 weeks of analyzing Homo Sapiens' DNA: 408,000
estimated time for completion of the search : two more weeks
… should probably start designing a database that will hold all these information …
