Adjusting Dotplot Settings in R to Investigate Sequence Repeats

26.10.2021

In this exercise we’ll look at a sequence with known tandem repeats. We’ll load the data, explore it in R, then use the dotPlot() function to make various dotplots to see how changing settings for dotPlots() help make repeat patterns stand out. Add the necessary code to make this script functional. Preliminaries Load packages library(seqinr...
