Description: quality control for high throughput sequence data
FastQC aims to provide a simple way to do some quality control checks on
raw sequence data coming from high throughput sequencing pipelines. It
provides a modular set of analyses which you can use to give a quick
impression of whether your data has any problems of which you should
be aware before doing any further analysis.
.
The main functions of FastQC are
* Import of data from BAM, SAM or FastQ files (any variant)
* Providing a quick overview to tell you in which areas there may
be problems
* Summary graphs and tables to quickly assess your data
* Export of results to an HTML based permanent report
* Offline operation to allow automated generation of reports without
running the interactive application
