Problems with understanding Quake's outputs

[zlix425]

Hi, I am new to this area and I am currently working on Illumina GA data analysis. I have this output from the software Quake:

...3598636 sequences processed, 359863600 bp scanned
WARNING: Input had 352880 non-DNA (ACGT) characters whose kmers were not counted
11120988 total distinct mers

$scale.e
[1] 1.328558

$u.v
[1] 57.375

$var.v
[1] 880.9596

I am not sure if the "warning" produced above affects the results? Also, I am not quite sure what are the meanings of "iter" values above as I could not find the meaning of these terms from the literature.

Thanks for anyone that could help.
