Description
Please include a summary of the changes being made within your PR. Please also include relevant motivation and context.
A for loop was added to count the total number of bases ($TOTAL_BASES) and concatenate the reads ($TOTAL_BASE_COUNT). All G and C basecalls in the reads are then counted ($GC_TOTAL). The GC count is then scaled to prepare for the percentage calculation ($GC_SCALED). The total number of bases and the total number of G and C basecalls are used to calculate the GC percentage of the reads ($GC_PERCENTAGE). This final percentage is reported as "GC percentage: $GC_PERCENTAGE%".

How Has This Been Tested?
Please describe the tests that you ran to verify your changes. Please also note any relevant details for your test configuration.
A small test data set was used to ensure accurate an GC percentage was calculated. Each step was also printed as it was generated to ensure that the code was accurate. The print commands have been disabled, but not removed.
