1. A method of identifying a biopolymer in a sample that includes one or more biopolymers, the method comprising:

  • selecting a mass from a first dataset, wherein said first dataset includes measured masses of the one or more biopolymers;

    matching masses in a second dataset with the selected mass, wherein said second dataset includes measured masses of a collection of fragments of the one or more biopolymers, and wherein the matched masses represent fragments of the biopolymer with the selected mass; and

    comparing the matched masses to determine a monomer sequence for the biopolymer with the selected mass.
