Qualification Goals At the end of this module, the students will acquire the methodological principles of the methodical basics of sequence analysis and other bioinformatic algorithms. They know essential algorithms and can classify them, analyse them and judge their goal-setting and efficiency.
Content Contents of the module are the basics of sequence comparison. These include algorithms such as e.g. Levenshtein distance, dynamic programming, global and local alignment, substitution matrices, multiple sequence alignment and others.
Forms of Teaching and Learning The module includes 2 SWS lectures, 2 SWS exercises and self-study.
Prerequisites for Participation Knowledge in sequential computer programming, linear algebra (vector and matrix calculation), as well as probability calculation and bachelor level statistics is required.

Students can prepare for the module with the following literature:
Schildt: C++ from the ground up, McGraw-Hill, 2003
Abelson, Hal; Sussman, Gerald Jay: Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs. MIT Press, 1985;
Alberts, Bray, Hopkin, Johnson, Roberts, Lewis: Essenial Cell Biology, Taylor & Francis, 2013
Jaynes: Probability Theory: The Logic of Science, Cambridge University Press, 2003.
Applicability The module is a compulsory module for students of Computational Life Science in the Computational Modelling and Simulation Master's programme.
Prerequisites for the Assignment of Credit Points The credit points are awarded if the module examination is passed. The module examination consists of an ungraded colloquium of 45 minutes.
Credit Points and Grades This module allows for the earning of 5 credit points. The module grade corresponds to the grade of the examination performance.
