De Bruijn Graphs: Construction from K-mer Composition

Let’s explore how we can make de Bruijn graphs without gluing, with the help of k-mer composition.

Constructing the de Bruijn graph by gluing identically labeled nodes will help us later when we generalize the notion of de Bruijn graph for other applications. We’ll now describe another useful way to construct de Bruijn graphs without gluing.
