[Biojava-l] Alignment consensus calculation

[Nathan S. Haigh]

I was wondering if there were any methods for generating a consensus
sequence for alignments? Or any suggestions for calculating the frequency of
symbols at each position in an alignment.
 
I had a look at the DistributionTools after seeing a past e-mail to the list
but couldn’t figure if this would do the job as I’m new to Java.
 
Thanks
Nath
