biopython-coronavirus

A tutorial Jupyter Notebook illustrating how to use Biopython to identity and perform some basic characterization of a coronavirus genome sequence. The objective of this tutorial is to introduce some of the Biopython modules in an applied biological context. Note, the use of a coronavirus genome is merely illustrative, the analyses are generic, and could be applied to any small genome.
