... **TL;DR: What's the point of doing research in Maximum Parsimony based methods for phylogeny construction if the Maximum Likelihood based methods became the standard for some time and, as far as I know, yield much better and consistent results? Are there situations where Maximum Parsimony based meth ...

... Hey everyone,
I'm an undergrad in Computer Science looking for a research project in machine learning applied to phylogenomics, specifically reconstruction of phylogenetic trees. Currently, I'm working as a research intern at a Molecular Biology Lab automating bioinformatics pipelines. Basically, ...

C: On the usage of Golang
... That pretty much answers my question.

Go may stay along s ...

Comment:
C: On the usage of Golang
... Indeed a strong foundation in C/C++ and Python covers a lot of ground (if not everything one can do!). The middle ones may be adequate for specific situations, although I think Julia and Rust have so much potential. I've heard of Nim, but don't know anything about it.

Comment:
C: On the usage of Golang
... Absolutely! But I think it's designed toward the same niche to Python and R and numerical computing in general. Do you think it is feasible to develop low level stuff like aligners, assemblers, etc? What passes through my mind now is that it may be nice to prototype algorithms, but not for productio ...

... > For something heavy duty like an aligner, were every iota of performance could really count, I don't personally see Go replacing C variants any time soon.
Well, that is a pity. You mentioned Rust. So far as I know, this one is comparable to C++ and has a tooling environment similar to Golang, ...

Interesting. So do you think for one-person projects it would be more valuable to stay with C/C++? I ask that because next year I will be applying for graduate school and (hopefully) do research in algorit ...

... I have used SeqKit some time ago and I noticed immediately that it was implemented in Golang. That was the first time I saw a tool written in the language, what left me intrigued. I would appreciate his comments. ...

On the usage of Golang
... Hello everyone,
I would like to ask opinions on a topic that I am very sure has been widely discussed among people who build tools, but I am eager for answers I have not yet found. I will try to make precise questions.
Bioinformatics tools like assemblers and aligners are typically written in C/C+ ...

... Hello everyone,
I'm trying to follow the steps outlined in the Phyluce pipeline (http://phyluce.readthedocs.io/en/latest/purpose.html), but in *Tutorial II: UCE Fasing data UCE* (see docs) there is a step that requires that the `phyluce_snp_phase_uces` script be run. Unfortunately, this script is n ...
