Common sequence manipulation functions

So far, you've learned the the most common sequence manipulation functions: 

reverse()
complement()
reverseComplement()
translate()

In real life, you can manipulate really large sequences using these functions.

However, for you to visually see the value and the results of these functions in this exercise, you will use a small subset. The object zikv, which you have previously subsetted from the Zika genome, has only 30 bases.

Test the functions using zikv:

  • Reverse the sequence.
  • Complement of the sequence.
  • Reverse complement the sequence.
  • Translate the sequence.
