CSC483 HW03

CSC 483: Homework 3, Due Jan 27, 2026, at 1 pm (with time for me to make copies before class)

1. Rosalind problems 14 - 20: sequence & alignment. (3 pts + 4 pts of PR)

  1. Make a copy of your homework colab template, save it to your drive, and rename it: [Name]_CSC483_HW03.ipynb

  2. You will also share your HW03 notebook with me as your submission.

  3. Complete Rosalind problems 14 through 20 in the same format as you used for HW 1.

Note that for this set, some problems direct you to use web-based programs rather than writing your own python code.

For each Rosalind problem, use chunks of Markdown text and python code to work out your solution.

Each Rosalind problem will give you a sample data and output to work on. Then, when you are ready, you will download a new dataset and past the corresponding result into the prompt box on Rosalind. I am not asking you to submit code to Rosalind as you will save it in your Colab notebook.

  1. In-class peer review holds an additional 4 points in the grading scheme, so be sure to finesse your notebook for easy reading.

2. Update Check-in Notebook (1 pts)

  1. Move your reflections from HW1, HW2 and HW3 into your check-in notebook.

  2. Review your check-in notebook and scores for last week’s homework assignment

  3. Include a Markdown chunk that attests to my notes or requests a correction/update
