What is LSC?
LSC is a program written entirely in python2.6 that is able to correct the thrid generation long reads by the second generation
short reads.
"awk" bugs?
- Question:
LSC 0.2.1 runs fine on a small set of data, but when it runs on the whole short read set (49 GB) I get an read error in awk:
(awk: read error (Bad address)
At first try it reached 30 GB but this error popped up earlier and earlier with each run. This error also appears when I just run awk from the commandline on this set.
- Answer:
The user may have used mawk that is a very fast AWK implementation by Mike Brennan based on a byte code interpreter. You will install GNU awk to run LSC.
