In this checkpoint, your goal is to find the longest consecutive sequence of a STR (Short Tandem Repeats) in a DNA sequence.

The main() function is already written for you. You will implement the function int numOccurrences(string& STR, string& sequence). Without even understanding what functions do in C++, all you need to know, at this point, is that you have access to the string STR of which you have to find the length of the largest consecutive occurrence in the string sequence.

For example,

if input sequence is:

AGACGGGTTACCATGACTATCTATCTATCTATCTATCTATCTATCTATCACGTACGTACGTATCGAGATAGATAGATAGATAGATCCTCGACTTCGATCGCAATGAATGCCAATAGACAAAA

then

  • numOccurrences("AGAT", sequence) should return 5
  • numOccurrences("TATC", sequence) should return 8

if input sequence is:

AACCCTGCGCGCGCGCGATCTATCTATCTATCTATCCAGCATTAGCTAGCATCAAGATAGATAGATGAATTTCGAAATGAATGAATGAATGAATGAATGAATG

then

  • numOccurrences("AATG", sequence) should return 7
  • numOccurrences("TATC", sequence) should return 4

if input sequence is:

CAGATAGATAGATAGATAGATAGATGTCACAGGGATGCTGAGGGCTGCTTCGTACGTACTCCTGATTTCGGGGATCGCTGACACTAATGCGTGCGAGCGGATCGATCTCTATCTATCTATCTATCTATCCTATAGCATAGACATCCAGATAGATAGATC

then

  • numOccurrences("AGATC", sequence) should return 1
