Description

This web application takes user inputted sequence of a DNA strand and generates the complementary strand sequence to make a double-stranded DNA. It correctly pairs nucleotides A-T, C-G, and vice versa. The second part of this page demonstrates AJAX calls to an existing content type and displays data without going to a different page.
