Version Compatibility

Reference examples tested with: BioPython 1.83+, numpy 1.26+

Before using code patterns, verify installed versions match. If versions differ:

• Python: pip show <package> then help(module.function) to check signatures
• CLI: <tool> --version then <tool> --help to confirm flags

If code throws ImportError, AttributeError, or TypeError, introspect the installed package and adapt the example to match the actual API rather than retrying.

Long-Read Quality Control

"Check the quality of my Nanopore/PacBio run" → Generate read length distributions, quality score plots, and summary statistics, then filter reads by length and quality thresholds.

• CLI: NanoPlot --fastq reads.fq.gz -o nanoplot_output/, chopper -q 10 -l 1000 < reads.fq > filtered.fq
