Dear,
I wonder why that the number of helical parameters printed out of
'analyze' is one less than the number of base-pairs. Is there a reason why
or I am missing something fundamental?
Appended below is the a.out file.
Thanks,
kp

1. The list of the parameters given below correspond to the 5' to 3'
direction
of strand I and 3' to 5' direction of strand II.
2. All angular parameters, except for the phase angle of sugar pseudo-
rotation, are measured in degrees in the range of [-180, +180], and all
displacements are measured in Angstrom units.
