Description
Bio/Recursion: Exploring CS and Bioinformatics in R This book introduces programming concepts in computer science and bioinformatics using examples in the R programming language. It covers topics such as DNA alignment, fractal trees, and important bio-informatics algorithms, all illustrated with over 100 color illustrations and 150 code blocks. The book explores recursion, a central theme that ties together searching, sorting, data structures, proofs, fractals, and more. Along the way, it includes dozens of exercises to challenge your understanding. With its unique blend of programming concepts and bioinformatics applications, Bio/Recursion is an ideal resource for those looking to explore these topics in depth. The book is structured around key chapters that cover various aspects of recursion and its applications, including recursive structures, searching and sorting, induction and stacks, hash tables, memoization, dynamic programming, alignment, and more.
