+# ViennaRNA Package
+
+A C code library and several stand-alone programs for the prediction and comparison of RNA secondary structures.
+
+Amongst other things, our implementations allow you to:
+
+- predict minimum free energy secondary structures
+- calculate the partition function for the ensemble of structures
+- compute various equilibrium probabilities
+- calculate suboptimal structures in a given energy range
+- compute local structures in long sequences
+- predict consensus secondary structures from a multiple sequence alignment
+- predict melting curves
+- search for sequences folding into a given structure
+- compare two secondary structures 
+- predict hybridization structures of two RNA molecules
+
+The package includes `Perl 5`, `Python 2`, and `Python 3` modules that give
+access to almost all functions of the C library from within the respective
+scripting languages.
+
+There is also a set of programs for analyzing sequence and distance
+data using split decomposition, statistical geometry, and cluster methods.
+They are not maintained any more and not built by default.
+
+The code very rarely uses static arrays, and all programs should work for 
+sequences up to a length of 32,700 (if you have huge amounts of memory that
+is).
