Can Biopython parse fastq file?

[ardmore]

Like so many other Fastq parsers, I made the assumption of a four-line format, but samtools produces a fastq format where sequence and quality runs over multiple lines.
Can Biopyhton accomodate this format?

Ignore it. I got it by using pure python.

If you mean Biopython, yes absolutely. See also:
