I don't see where the explanation of the difference between
FastqQuality and SFastqQuality is. Is the first one for Sanger the
second one for Illumina according to the following webpage?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FASTQ_format
There are totally 4 different Phred score scheme. Would you please let
which correspond to which class in ShortRead package?
S - Sanger Phred+33, raw reads typically (0, 40)
X - Solexa Solexa+64, raw reads typically (-5, 40)
I - Illumina 1.3+ Phred+64, raw reads typically (0, 40)
J - Illumina 1.5+ Phred+64, raw reads typically (3, 40) with
0=unused, 1=unused, 2=Read Segment Quality Control Indicator (bold)
