ATMIN

The ATMIN command allows you to select a single row based on a minimum value of a defined column. Note that the column needs to be a number.

Using ATMIN in a nor query will give an error if binsize input parameter is used.

Usage

gor ... | ATMIN binsize column [ attributes ]
nor ... | ATMIN column [ attributes ]

Options

-last

Returns the last value for multiple possible minimums.

-gc cols

Grouping columns (other than bin).

-ordered

Assume the grouping columns are ordered.

Use binsize = chrom to aggregate for a whole chromosome and binsize = genome to aggregate for the entire genome. Note, that the column must be a numeric column.

When using ATMIN in a NOR context, the ordered flag can both speed up the operation and reduce the memory usage significantly. Note that there are no checks to see if the order is correct - only use this option if the input stream is correctly ordered.

Examples

gor ... | ATMIN 1000 gene_start

Returns a row with the minimum gene_start value over 1000 base pairs.

gor ... | ATMIN chrom value_column -last -gc date

Returns a row with the minimum value_column value per chromosome. Group rows by the date column, each group is represented with a single row. If multiple minimums exist take the last one found.
