✨ FASTQ_PAIR(1) ✨

okay bestie, sit down, we're talking about fastq_pair 💖 it lives in the User Commands corner of your manual, and it is literally the girl who fixes your messy paired-end situation.

🌸 NAME 🌸

fastq_pair — rewrite paired end fastq files so that all reads have a mate and to separate out singletons 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

No cap, here's the whole vibe, the synopsis, the moment:

fastq_pair [options] [fastq file 1] [fastq file 2]

she takes your two fastq files, makes sure every read has a mate, and pulls the lonely little singletons out on their own. main character energy fr fr 💅

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -t — table size, and the default is 100003. yes, that exact number, iconic of her ⭐
  • -p — print the number of elements in each bucket in the table 👑
  • -v — verbose output. this one is mainly for debugging, so if you're just vibing normally you can skip it 💀
lowkey important: -v is mainly for debugging — that's straight from the source, don't come for me 🙈
