The most widely-used +tools enable genome arithmetic: that is, set theory on the genome. For +example, bedtools allows one to intersect, merge, count, complement, +and shuffle genomic intervals from multiple files in widely-used +genomic file formats such as BAM, BED, GFF/GTF, VCF. + +While each individual tool is designed to do a relatively simple task +(e.g., intersect two interval files), quite sophisticated analyses can +be conducted by combining multiple bedtools operations on the UNIX +command line. |
