SAM是Sequence Alignment/Map 的缩写。像bwa等软件序列比对结果都会输出这样的文件。samtools网站上有专门的文档介绍SAM文件。具体地址:http://samtools.sourceforge.net/SAM1.pdf
很多人困惑SAM文件中的第二列FLAG值是什么意思。根据文档介绍我们可以计算,但是为了方便大家,下面给大家提供一个脚本工具,大家直接输入flag值就可以知道它代表的含义了。
该脚本的使用方法如下截图所示:

脚本工具的使用方法:
将下面的代码保存在记事本里面,另存为一个html文件,如文件名:FlagExplain.html(拓展名一定要为.html)。双击既可以在浏览器里面打开了。
