In
recent
years,
the
computer
has
been
used
as
an
aid
in
grouping
bacteria
and
classifying
them
with
a
great
degree
of
precision.
Bacteria
are
identified
by
conventional
methods
using
morphological,
biochemical
and
serological
tests.
The
problem
arises
in
comparing
a
large
number
of
characters
as
in
the
case
of
numerical
taxonomy
or
the
Adansonian
approach.
To
overcome
these
difficulties
the
computers
are
used
for
estimating
the
differentiating
power
of
the
tests
as
welt
as
for
estimating
the
overall
similarity
with
known
organisms.
