A Cython wrapper around uShuffle - a useful tool for shuffling biological sequences while preserving the k-let counts

This is just a bundle of files downloaded from [ushuffle](http://digital.cs.usu.edu/~mjiang/ushuffle/)
and wrapped in Cython for easy installation and use.

Installation
------------

```
git clone https://github.com/guma44/ushuffle.git
cd ushuffle
python setup.py install [ --user ]
```

or

```
pip install [--user] ushuffle
```

Usage
-----

The library exposes a shuffling function shuffle and a Shuffler object used to
make shuffling many times eg.:

```
from ushuffle import shuffle, Shuffler

seq = "ababcdcdabdcabvababab"
shuffler = Shuffler(self.seq, len(self.seq), 2)

for i in range(10):
seqres = shuffler.shuffle()
print("results:", seqres)

print shuffle(a, 2)
```
