ABSTRACT
Patterns haunt the mind of a seeker. And, when the seeker is equipped with a computer with boundless capabilities, limitless memory, and easily accessible data repositories to dig through, there is no underestimating the care that should be undertaken in defining such a task and interpreting the results. For instance, the human genome alone is 3,000,000,000 nucleotides long! A sequence of 3 billion characters defined on an alphabet size of four (A, C, G, T) offers endless possibilities for useful as well as possibly useless nuggets of information.1
