To use this tool, your dataset needs to be in the *Quality Score* format. Click the pencil icon next to your dataset to set the datatype to *Quality Score* (see below for examples).
 
-----

**What it does**

This tool finds high quality segments within sequencing reads generated by by Roche (454), Illumina (Solexa), or ABI SOLiD machines.

-----

**Example**


Suppose this is your sequencing read::
  
   5'---------*-------------*------**----3'
   
where **dashes** (-) are HIGH quality bases (above 20) and **asterisks** (*) are LOW quality bases (below 20). If the **Minimal length of contiguous segment** is set to **5** (of course, only for the purposes of this example), the tool will return::

   5'---------
               -------------
                             -------

you can see that the tool simply splits the read on low quality bases and then returns all segments longer than 5.  **Note**, that the output of this tool will likely contain higher number of shorter sequences compared to the original input.   If we set the **Minimal length of contiguous segment** to **0**, the tool will only return the single longest segment::

               -------------
