In the bash menu below if the variant that is inputted is in the format NM_004004.3:c.274G>T the below works perfectly. My question is if the variant inputted is NM_004004.3:-c.274G>T or NM_004004.3:+c.274G>T then the code as is will throw an error due to a biological issue. Is it possible to to have variants that have either a -/+ in them skip the additional function and go straight to the nomenclature function? I apologize for any confusion I am not sure how to explain this, but basically if variants with a -/+ in them go to the additional function then they will error. I don't know if there can be a special case coded in or if there is a better way. Thank you :).
