How To Install codonw on Kali Linux

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install codonw on Kali Linux.

What is codonw

codonw is:

CodonW is a package for codon usage analysis. It was designed to simplify Multivariate Analysis (MVA) of codon usage. The MVA method employed in CodonW is correspondence analysis (COA) (the most popular MVA method for codon usage analysis). CodonW can generate a COA for codon usage, relative synonymous codon usage or amino acid usage. Additional analyses of codon usage include investigation of optimal codons, codon and dinucleotide bias, and/or base composition. CodonW analyses sequences encoded by genetic codes other than the universal code.

There are three methods to install codonw on Kali Linux. We can use apt-get, apt and aptitude. In the following sections we will describe each method. You can choose one of them.
