Hi all,
I am working on bam files from the TCGA.
In the header of the bam, there is:
SORTED
As i understood, it is sorted by coordinates.
In samtools there is option -n, which is sorted by name.
Is it the same?
As far i understand - coordinates is the seq-machine coordinates, and name is the name of the read - so it seems the same to me..
Any comments?
Thanks,
Pap
