bookChallenge: Calculate Genome Coverage

Task

Swipe to start coding

Write a Python function that calculates genome coverage from sequencing read start positions.

  • Accept a list of integers, read_starts, representing the start position of each read.
  • Accept an integer, genome_length, representing the total length of the genome.
  • Return a list of integers of length genome_length, where each element at index i is the number of reads that start at position i.
