I have created a small program to find all combinations of cetain length possible with the four DNA bases (A,T,G,C) and then search inside a sequence to count the occurences of each combination.
I end up with two arrays, one containing the possible combinations and the other integer values of occurences.
For example for all possible triplets we get an array M<64x3 char> and the array C<1x64 double>.
My problem is, I don't know how to print the results in a file with two columns, one containing each combination as a string (for example "AT" or "CG") and the other column containing the appropriate C value (counts, for example "5").
Actually I would like to be able to use this array to print histograms etc.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.
