But it should be obvious that the two problems are similar, and there is a good chance that the solutions might be similar.

I understand that you're working on genes and that computer science is not your area of expertise. But, this forum is intended to help people learn how to effectively use Linux and UNIX system; not to be an unpaid pool of programmers to write software for your genetic research projects. With well over 150 posts to these forums, and our help in solving more than 75 issues you have raised, and watching what goes on in the UNIX & Linux Forums; we would expect that by now you have started to learn something from all of our help.

What have you tried to do to solve this problem on your own?
