dadi

Description

dadi website

dadi is a powerful software tool for simulating the joint frequency spectrum (FS) of genetic variation among multiple populations and employing the FS for population-genetic inference. An important aspect of dadi is its flexibility, particularly in model specification, but with that flexibility comes some complexity. dadi is not a GUI program, nor can dadi be run usefully with a single command at the command-line; using dadi requires at least rudimentary Python scripting. Luckily for us, Python is a beautiful and simple language.
