StABU

Like almost all bioinformatics high thoughput data processing resources, St Andrews bioinformatics cluster is primarily for command-line Unix/Linux programs and applications. Here are some links to finding out how these work:

• http://people.duke.edu/~ccc14/pcfb/unix.html
• http://userweb.eng.gla.ac.uk/umer.ijaz/bioinformatics/linux.html
• Rik Smith’s Command-line Bootcamp, a practice oriented on-line course

Although the term “bioinformatics” seems to directly link biological analysis and computation, there does happen to be a stepping stone between the two, and it largely defines a discipline which is embedded in both. That is, statistics. Here are some useful statistics links:

• Rafael Irizarry’s R and Statistics course
