    Salient Features

    • Focus on fundamentally important algorithms at the core of bioinformatics.
    • Easy-to-do “paper and pencil” calculations make fundamental algorithms unintimidating for biology students and accessible to students with limited experience in computer programming.
    • Combined expertise (biology and computer science) of author team ensures an integrated approach and an appreciation for the biology and computer science tools and perspectives.
    • Detailed solutions to selected text questions are provided in the back of the text so students can check their answers.
