Summary: WHAM is a high-throughput sequence alignment tool.
"Error: no local variable "counter" was set." is not a number.

Description
It aligns short DNA sequences (reads) to the whole human genome at a rate of over 1500 million 60bps reads per hour, which is one to two orders of magnitudes faster than the leading state-of-the-art techniques.
Features
- Supports paired-end reads
- Supports up to 5 mismatches
- Supports up to 3 gaps
- Supports quality scores for filtering invalid alignments, and sorting valid alignments
- Supports multi-threading
- Supports rich reporting modes
- Supports SAM format output
Curious about the name WHAM – it stands for Wisconsin’s High-throughput Alignment Method.
