Hierarchical clustering using R

The example is using a file, primates.txt, from Table 10.1 of the book, Computational Genome Analysis.

Above is the content of the Table 10.1. It will occur error, if you copy the sequence into the primates.txt. There are some works to do. We just use 4 rows like the example.

You have to delete the labels, like Hy, Pa, Go, etc., and replace the A,C,G,T into 1,2,3,4, respectively.
It is easy to using the replace function by any kind of editor even the simplest one, wordpad in windows.
Then you will get the 4 sequences.

You will get wrong result of displaying of "dapes".
Becuase you just read 4 items into R, that means the one sequence is one item.
So you have to using any kind of software to let the file to be the text file separating each letter with tab.
Then you will get correct primates.txt and get right result of displaying dapes.
