Introduction

This book is meant for those programmers, Bioinformatics and researchers looking for a way to start programming with Python or desire to expand the knowledge in the Bioinformatics area.

This book takes examples from Rosalind website (http://rosalind.info/problems/dna/) which provides a great overview of coders and software developers tackle "common" programming problems, and how to resolve them. Also Biopython Tutorial and Cookbook {Chang, Jeff, et al. "Biopython Tutorial and Cookbook." (2010).} and Bioinformatics Programming using Python {Model, Mitchell L.Bioinformatics programming using Python. OReilly Media, 2010.} are being cited here. The objetive of this book is an effort to bring both areas together, Programming and Bioinformatics in a way that people from this areas adapt rapidly. In most of the examples I will provide explanation in both Spanish and English, as this book is thought for a larger audience.

Este libro esta pensado en programadores y científicos de Bioinformática que están buscando una guía rápida para entender ambas ramas, complementando conocimientos y dando un panorama general.

Este libro toma referencias, conocimientos y ejercicios de sitio web Rosalind (http://rosalind.info/problems/dna/) que nos da un gran número de ejercicios relacionados al campo de la biología molecular, química y áreas a fín. La manera de describir los problemas invita a los programadores y científicos investigadores a aportar y visualizar el problema desde su área de expertise. Se toman ejemplos de los siguientes libros, Biopython Tutorial and Cookbook {Chang, Jeff, et al. "Biopython Tutorial and Cookbook." (2010).} y Bioinformatics Programming using Python {Model, Mitchell L.Bioinformatics programming using Python. OReilly Media, 2010.} En la mayoría de los ejemplos se provee una explicación tanto en Español como en Inglés para abarcar una mayor audiencia.
