Suffix arrays for alignment

acesnik opened this issue · 2 comments

This is a wonderful library of functions for bioinformatic analysis. I'm excited to try it out!

Do you have any plans to implement an alignment algorithm similar to STAR, which uses suffix arrays for string searches?

No plans at the present, but I am a huge fan of all algorithms from Gene Meyers, and I'm sure people would love to see that functionality if you had any interest in contributing it!

Definitely welcome that functionality if you are interested.
