This is the core library used by sourmash. It exposes a C API that can be called from FFI in other languages, and it is how we use it in Python for building the sourmash application (CLI and Python API).


sourmash is a product of the Lab for Data-Intensive Biology at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine.
