An ZeroDivisionError when I run fastqp.py

[EnzoAndree]

Dear, I just install fastqp and an error occurred when i run the script, this is the error.

fastqp Sanger_F_sample.fastq
At 2186 bytes per read of 1086 length we estimate 96 reads in input file.
Bin size (-s) set to 1.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/fastqp", line 11, in

cycle_nuc[i]['T']]) * 100 for i in positions]
ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero

Any idea why this error occurred?
I use OSx, python 2.7.13 and a sample of the fastq file is on the attachment.

Thanks for reporting this, and for sending the test data! I think I know what's going on here, but give me a day or two to push a new version with the fix.

[mdshw5]

I've just pushed a fix, and a new version (0.3) to PyPI. You should update using python install --upgrade fastqp and then give it another shot. Here's an example plot from the test data you sent:

WoW @mdshw5, it looks awesome. Nevertheless i can't get the full output of fastqp, I get this error.

dear @mdshw5, this error appear only to me?

@EnzoAndree @mdshw5 I am running across the same (more recent) issue, and can reproduce it on the above sample fastq file on fastqp (0.3.1).

[mdshw5]

I'll take a look and see if I can reproduce it. Can I ask what python version you're running?

[kdoroschak]

python 2.7.13 Anaconda 64-bit

@mdshw5 The problem is caused by an empty list if there are no "bad kmers". I have pushed a (hack-ish) solution #28 that will (temporarily) solve the problem until a better way is found.

[mdshw5]

Thanks @edawine for taking the time to look in to this. I'll merge your changes and push a new release! I do think an empty list is the correct solution, since I'm using a test of nonlinearity to define over-represented kmers.
