使用我传递给函数的字符串获取 NameError，表示当我尝试在函数中使用它时未定义字符串

Question

我有这个rev_comp()函数

>>> def rev_comp(sequence):
...     def reverse(s):
...             letters = list(s)
...             letters.reverse()
...             return ''.join(letters)
...     def complement(s):
...             basecomplement = {'A': 'T', 'C': 'G', 'T': 'A', 'G': 'C', 'a': 't', 'c': 'g', 't': 'a', 'g': 'c'}
...             letters = list(s)
...             letters = [basecomplement[base] for base in letters]
...             return ''.join(letters)
...     reverse(sequence)
...     complement(sequence)
...     return sequence
...

外显子是我想反转和赞美的字符串。

本质上，它应该将外显子反转为'gtacgtgtacgt'，然后替换以下各项的每个实例：

g -> c, t -> a, c -> g, and a ->t

rev_comp(exon)应该返回"catgcacatgca"

>>> exon = "tgcatgtgcatg"
>>> rev_comp(exon)
'tgcatgtgcatg'

我用 pdb 运行它，它吐出了所有这些：

>>> pdb.run(rev_comp(exon))
> <string>(1)<module>()->None
(Pdb) n
NameError: "name 'tgcatgtgcatg' is not defined"
> <string>(1)<module>()->None
(Pdb) n
--Return--
> <string>(1)<module>()->None

    exec cmd in globals, locals

这对我来说意义不大。

谁能帮我弄清楚为什么它认为我传入的序列没有定义？

您忽略了 reverse 和 complement 的返回值。 试试这个：

sequence = reverse(sequence)
sequence = complement(sequence)
return sequence
