Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has code for a DNA double helix or could help me draw a double helix. I'd like to use the image within a talk on genetics. I'm new to this coding world, so I'm mostly just collecting code and going to what I have saved to modify it when I need it. So, the more detail, the better...
Thanks,
Charleen

Re: draw a DNA double helix
Hi Charleen,
welcome to the forum!
I did not see a TeX drawing of a DNA helix before. But similar things, though. But it's not easy to adjust. No problem, we can help drawing anything if you would also work with it. It just looks like much to do. Would you take the challenge of learning TikZ for it?
Otherwise, if you just would like to have the picture, get it from somewhere in an image format, if it may be sufficient, instead of coding.
