Vice versa, if you do not know what kind of signal to expect, the fingerprint plot will give you a straight-forward indication of how careful you will have to be during your downstream analyses to separate biological noise from meaningful signal. -Similar to ``multiBamSummary``, ``plotFingerprint`` randomly samples genome regions (bins) of a specified length and sums the per-base coverage in indexed [BAM][] (or bigWig) files that overlap with those regions. +Similar to ``multiBamSummary``, ``plotFingerprint`` randomly samples genome regions (bins) of a specified length and sums the per-base coverage in indexed BAM files that overlap with those regions. These values are then sorted according to their rank and the cumulative sum of read counts is plotted.
