I need to perform K-means clustering and Hierarchical clustering of DNA sequences(nucleotide) sequences which i have downloaded in FASTA format. So before performing clustering I need to do DECIMAL ENCODING OF bases(a,t,c,g).. so how to do that.. so that i can take this input in the matrix form in MATLAB?.
