the program will work on fastq files. The sequencing technology makes long reads.

As another commenter said, I don't need superdeep sequencing knowledge because my work will mostly be on the programming side (enhance performance, not adding new functionalities) but anyways it could be useful to have a clear picture of the process.

Thanks for your help

as a person who’s worked on sequencing software I’ve found the biochemistry knowledge to only be incidentally useful

I have the same feeling but I'm uncomfortable working on something knowing so little about it. I'll check out the book, thanks!

Maybe it's off topic, but anyway :

I'm a cs student, in my thesys I'll be working on a NGS C++ application. I need at least a brief introduction to "basic" sequencing but I'm struggling to find something accessible. Every book I find seems superspecialized. Now I'm reading "Insect Molecular Genetics : An introduction to principles and applications" but I'd like to read just a book chapter a little bit more advanced than the contents shown in this video https://youtu.be/ONGdehkB8jU

Any suggestions?

Did you compile it using '-std=c11 -O1' ?

thanks

I wonder why someone decided that accessing "one past the end" should be fine
