#> ✔ Loading CNAqc, 'Copy Number Alteration quality check'. Support : <https://caravagn.github.io/CNAqc/>Fragmentation of individual arms
The fragmentation of a chromosome arm is assessed with a statistical test based on counting the size of the copy number segments mapping to the arm. This analysis works only at the level of clonal segments
We work with the template dataset.

# A histogram of segments' lenght
plot_segment_size_distribution(x)
CNAqc counts, for every arm with lenght nucleotides:
- , the number of mapped CNA segments shorter than of ;
- , the number of mapped CNA segments longer than sof .
A one-sided Binomial test is used to compute a p-value for the null hypothesis of seeing observations in trials, assuming a Binomial success probability . represents a model where each segment length is equally likely (uniform distribution).
In this way the test accounts for the difference in lenghts of the chromsome arms; a p-value per arm is reported and adjusted for multiple hyoptheses (Bonferroni).

#> ✔ Arm-level fragmentation analysis: 8 segments overfragmented.You can produce a arm-level report for the fragmentation test, with:
- a scatter of the counts per arm, with scaled the p-values;
- a jump statistics per arm, .
is the sum of the variation in total copy number profiles, evaluated among each pair of contiguous segments.
Significantly overfragmented arms with high have a “scattered” copy number profile. Those with low are more uniform, as they show little no copy number change, and can be possibly smoothed (see below).
plot_arm_fragmentation(x, zoom = 0)
Once available, these results appear in any call to plot_segments as annotated purple squares sorrounding the arms.

Smoothing is a good way to start cleaning up the fragmented sets of arms.
