Project Description for Computational Biology
Explore how computational biology applies to coding interviews by learning to model DNA mutations, detect viruses, identify proteins, and analyze gene sequences through practical problem-solving. This lesson equips beginners with techniques for designing solutions relevant to biology-based coding challenges.
We'll cover the following...
Introduction
Since the discovery of Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and Ribonucleic acid (RNA), computer science found lots of applications in biology. An entire field called Computational Biology exists to apply computer science to biology problems.
The scenario and the problems discussed in this chapter also relate to the DNA and protein sequences that are dealt within Computational Biology.
Statement
Assume you are a developer in a biology lab. You are tasked with creating simulations for DNA transformation of different species. The biology lab wants you to write a suite ...
