[BioPython] Iterating through an alignment to calculate the number of gaps and their lengths

[Matthew Abravanel]

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone could help, I am trying to write a little python
script to iterate through an alignment and determine the number of gaps the
alignment has and their lengths and output that information as a list.
 Such as this made up alignemt:

 Seq1 ATT-AGC-C
 Seq2 AT--AGCTC

and your program runs and outputs like  2 gaps of length 1 outputted as a
list like this [1,1] or something like that. I am still learning about
python strings and iterators and am not sure how you would approach this?
Appreciate any help you could give. Thanks.

Sincerely,

                     Matthew
