Additional Exercises

This additional exercise has been compiled to extend on the concepts presented in the lecture. We invite you to work through it to gain a deeper understanding of the algorithms and the role of individual parameters. It will also allow you to practice your programming skills in Python.

Before starting, please review the below resource requirements.

Resources

This section requires the use of Jupyter on Cousteau. You should have therefore completed the Setup .

You can access Jupyter on our server through this link: http://cousteau-jupyter.ethz.ch/

If you would like to refresh your Python knowledge before starting, please refer to the Python Refresher that is part of the course.

Starting the exercise

Once you have logged into Jupyter, you should find a folder called genomics_exercises. In there you should find the folder exercises where all the genomics exercises are going to be located.

Once you open this folder, you can go into the exercise03 folder and click on the exercise03_rnaseq.ipynb notebook.

All remaining instructions can be found directly in the Jupyter notebook.
