rna long read length distibution

Question

[shinyjj]

Hi, I want to compute a length distribution of a long read fastq file I have with x-axis being the length and y-axis being the count of that specific length. You can imagine a long tail distribution for either pacbio or ont. Is there a tool that can calculate the length distribution of a rna long read fastq file? I am not calculating the mean of the length!

Thanks! But these ones are quality vs length. Are there tools that count vs length?

NanoPlot and cramino will also give you a length distribution, the plot you are requesting.
