Hello and welcome atiqueulalam ,

you should provide more information to your question. Most important you should always show how your input looks like and how your desired output should look like.

I made a wild guess: You are looking for BLAST. You can do this e.g. on UCSC or ensembl.

You are basically looking for the length of the fasta file for each chromosome. You could use one the answers here (Sequence length from Fasta ).

If this is a genome already published then locate its genome page at NCBI/Ensembl. You will have to click through a few links but you can find the assembly report with detailed stats. Here is an example for one of many Mouse genome assemblies.
