<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Dear all,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Sorry about the belated thanks to all
those who replied. Unfortunately, I went out of town soon after posting
my request and have only just returned. If I may continue, however,
I notice that several of the replies suggested books etc. for a course
designed for teaching programming for bioinformatics. Although I
write code, I am a biologist and this course is being offered by the Biology
department. In fact, the computer science department would certainly
take objection if I were to teach programming in the course. I will
have to restrict the teaching to available tools only. I can of course,
give the computer science students projects where they would be required
to write code (any suggestions?). Essentially, I am trying to do
what Michael Sadowski has suggested. By the way, Christoph's Bioinformatics
STRAP appears very interesting but I am still to explore it properly.</font>
