## Part A - seq function
a: Create a vector where the first element is 1, the last element is 33, with an increment of 2 between elements.
b: Create a vector with 15 equally spaced elements in which the first element is 7 and the last element is 40.
c: Use the sample function to create a vector with variable name my.dna that consists of 20 uniformly-random letters “A”, “C”, “G”, and “T”.
d: Use the == logic operator and other R functions on your my.dna variable to determine how many of the letters are “A”. Hint: you can use sum on a TRUE/FALSE vector or you can use the functions which and length.
e: Confirm your answer in d with the table(my.dna). From the output of table, create a pie chart and barplot. Add x and y labels to your barplot.
f: Use the sample function with the option prob=c(.1,.4,.4,.1)to create a vector with variable name my.dna2 that consists of 20 non-uniformly random letters “A”, “C”, “G”, and “T”. Use table to show the nucleotide counts.
