[BioC] Error in readSeqFile of qrqc package?

[Sang Chul Choi]

Hi,

I am trying to use "qrqc" package. I had two fastQ files (Illumina), one of which created about a year ago, and another was created a few months ago.  The earlier one was read in using readSeqFile, and the latter one was not. I attach the error message from it with R version.  The problem is about quality score format. I tried quality="phred" because for earlier one quality scores are Illumina Q score offset (ascii 64), and for latter one is in Sanger FASTQ format, the offset is ascii 33.  I am wondering if I could change readSeqFile options to read the second fastQ file that is in Sanger FASTQ format created by Illumina.

Thank you,

SangChul
