There are a lot more resources and tools for perl than python. But I don't think there is anything inherently special about perl that makes it easier to develop tools or tailor code your own functions compared to python. It all comes down to what language you know better at the end of the day I think. -
after re-reading some of perl scripts i lost hope for it and switched to python. i started with this:
Learn Python The Hard WayComment

I think 'learning the hard way' would mean that every copy-paste example in the book had one error in it. That would teach you fairly quickly about debugging -- one of the hardest things to learn in programming (and the most valuable).Comment

Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.
The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
