Hi Justin,

Which example are you referring too? It doesn't sound very efficient.

There are some wiki pages with user contributed cookbook recipes:
http://biopython.org/wiki/Category:Cookbook

There is also the "Biopython Tutorial and Cookbook", online here:
http://biopython.org/DIST/docs/tutorial/Tutorial.html
http://biopython.org/DIST/docs/tutorial/Tutorial.pdf

Thanks,

Peter
