Function decode

pub fn decode(
    ebuf: &[u64],
    n_bases: usize,
    dbuf: &mut Vec<u8>,
) -> Result<(), NucleotideError>

Unpacks a 2-bit packed sequence into a nucleotide sequence.

The sequence is a collection of u64 values, where each u64 contains up to 32 nucleotides.

It is expected that the sequence is packed fully (32bp) until the final u64, which may contain fewer than 32 nucleotides.

Arguments

• ebuf - The buffer containing the packed nucleotides.
• n_bases - The number of nucleotides to unpack.
• dbuf - The buffer to write the unpacked nucleotides to.

Errors

If the sequence cannot be unpacked, an error is returned.
