Standard unix tools are so incredibly useful in bioinformatics. Almost all of our data formats are, or can be canonically transformed into, plain-text.
Learning the basics of awk, sed, etc is almost a requirement.
- skosuri 8y agoSort, cut and uniq are also amazingly useful.
- cup-of-tea 8y agoDon't forget paste. You need that to make your table from your column oriented data store.
- fatboy93 8y agoDon't forget join, tr and column. Makes formatting a breeze. Most of my time is spent on the terminal and without these I'd shoot myself.
