Headers and data rows do not match up in batch_90-samples_Lowcov.bed #4
Description
There are 11 items in the header description of this file (chr, start, stop, length, gene, prev, synonymous, refseq, ccds, vega, miRNA) but 13 items per row (based on there being 12 delimiters per data line).
- There is an extra tab between the data for 'length' and 'gene' for each row.
- There is a column at the end which happens to be 'length'-1, but does not have a corresponding header.
- The second point brings up another issue: either the final column (which has no header descriptor), or the column actually marked 'length' is the length of the region, depending on whether 0-based half-open or 1-based closed intervals are used. Since this is a bed file, it would probably be best to stick with the bed convention and use 0-based half-open coordinates, but at the very least this should be documented.
