To practice this data analysis, a computer with 4–8 GB RAM, 100 GB disk space and quad core
processor is required. All the analyses mentioned in this chapter are performed on a MacBook Air.
These analyses can also be performed using any computer with Unix-based Operating System (like
Linux, Biolinux [13], Ubuntu, RHL, Fedora, and Linux Mint) or virtual drive with any Linux
distribution. It is essential, to know the administrator/root password of the computer to install few
software used in this chapter. We use Linuxbrew to install most of the applications utilized in this
chapter. An Internet connection is a must for installing applications. Read every message shown at
command prompt (terminal) as it will help in understanding the cause of error. Most of the time errors
are caused due to spelling mistakes.
