Hi all,
I have a .sam file and I want to extract random alignments from it.
I googled a bit and there are quite a few tools that have commands to "downsample a sam file" like Picard and GATK. I couldn't really find if these tools would allow me to extract a certain percentage or certain number of alignments from the SAM file.
I also got an alternative which would allow me to do that from sample sam file
But I would like to do the same thing using Picard or GATK. Any suggestions?
