Bioinformatic assignment, This is a code in Ruby language. This code is to do a global alignment, and needs to be in semi-global alignment.

Modify the code of global alignment to be semi-global alignment.

What changes are needed to construct a semi-global alignment. The global alignment works pretty well on sequences that are nearly the same length. Let's try another example where the sequence lengths are more disparate.• $ ruby global.rb -d cgctatag cta
