Next we will look at the parameter file param2, and its corresponding output file out2.dat. This file corresponds to having 50 burn-in and 100 follow-on iterations, with checkit = NO, details = YES and uses the badsnps file that we created in the previous step.

 

To do this type on the command line in the examples directory:

>> ./ancestrymap –p paramfile > outf&

 

Compare the output files outf and out2.dat to make sure you can understand the output generated. Note that the use of the random number generator makes it impossible for the results to be exactly the same for two runs unless the parameter seed has the same value. The important things to focus on in this run are the t(Afr) and t(Eur) values, scores for the various chromosomes and the genome log factor value.

 

In addition to the standard output, this parameter file will also create a number of output files in the outfiles directory. These files are as follows, and have been discussed in detail in the documentation.

§         act.out

§         freq.out

§         snp.out

§         theta.out

§         lambda.out

§         ethinc.out

§         ind.out
