bzComplexityAnalyzer

Getting Started

import bzComplexityAnalyzer

Preparing an analyzer object

analyzer = bzComplexityAnalyzer.Analyzer(alphabet="dna", ignoreCase=True, iterations=1000)

• alphabet: string or list of characters Specifies the alphabet to be compared against. Default: DNA
• ignoreCase: boolean If true, casing of letters will be homogenized before analysis to neutralize their effects on complexity
• iterations int Number of random sequences to use for finding the distribution of compressed product lengths

Estimating the complexity of a sequence

analyzer.getCompressionZScore("GAATTCGAATTCGAATTC") # Returns a Z-score
analyzer.getCompressionPercentile("GAATTCGAATTCGAATTC") # Returns a percentile
