When the pipeline statgen is compiled, the SAM/BAM executable, "bam" is generated in the pipelinestatgen/bamsrc/bin/ directory.
The software reads the beginning of an input file to determine if it is SAM/BAM. To determine the format (SAM/BAM) of the output file, the software checks the output file's extension. If the extension is ".bam" it writes a BAM file, otherwise it writes a SAM file.
