Is there a software for genomic calculation of GC content and Gene density under sliding windows?

gccontent genedensity

What is "genomic statistical calculation of GC content "? So just determining the GC content?

E.g. make the sliding windows with bedtools makewindows (this gives you a BED file), and then together with a fasta file of the genome use: A: Calculating Gc Content For All Ccds

Yes I mean GC content, sorry for the mistake, I have just remove that word.

Ok, no problem. Does the suggested solution make sense to you or do you need something else?

Yes, the gene density under sliding windows

I would probably intersect the sliding window BED file with a BED file that contains only the TSS (transcription start site) coordinates of every gene (or rather transcript), e.g. bedtools intersect and from this make the calculation.
