Tutorial: How to ask computational biology questions
Hi all,
I think it is relevant to post here because we are all here to ask questions. If you want others to help you, make sure it is frictionless. Everyone is busy. If you do not make an effort to ask good questions, do not expect others to answer you.
I made the same mistakes before. so do not feel bad. Let's learn together.
Tip #1 Do your homework. Google first
Tip #2 Give context. what biological questions are you asking? what exact are you trying to achieve?
Tip #3 Show me your code. what you have tried, why it is not working?
Tip #4 Show appreciation. Be thankful to the one who answers your question.

Happy Learning! Tommy
