Where can I find documentation on Countgraph ?
Hey
I code in Python and I want to use Countgraph, but I can't find documentation on the parameters to pass. Only some insights on the example for the Python API.
Hi @Nortalle!
Our documentation is definitely intended for users of khmer's command-line tools, rather than developers using the Python API. Still, the concepts discussed on this page are helpful.
A Countgraph
object requires 3 parameters at construction time.
- a k-mer size
- a number of rows
- the (approximate) size of each row
The exact memory usage of the Countgraph
object will be very close to the the product of parameter 2 and parameter 3. Hope this helps!
