There is no defined min and max. Would it be fair say that min is typically 0 and max < 216 or 232? (Which?)

Hi BrowserUk, The target region is a chromosome bed file which spans on an average a 300 base region on any chromosome. Let us say the target region contains incremental regions of 300 each. I am trying to identify if a SNP falls in the target region. 216 or 232 as max is really too big! `target region ============= chr1 100 400 chr1 450 750 chr1 780 980 ...` [download] Thanks Much, Uma	[reply] [d/l]

Hm. A file containing 2 million queries consisting of a single integer in the range 1 .. 1000, is going to contain (on average) 1000 duplicates of each query?
