RSeQC tutorial to identify stranding information in RNAseq

RNA-seq technology has evolved and many datasets are now stranded, meaning strand specificity of origin for each transcript is retained in RNAseq.
Now comes the conundrum, what if this RNA-seq is not one you generated? There is always a need to confirm stranding information when not using self-generated data.

At this point we just assume that the reads are unstranded and align.  
If you have a huge number of reads that will take a significant amount of time to align, then take a subset of your fastq files
i.e. head -n 200000 R1.FASTQ >truncated_R1.fastq and head -n 200000 R2.fastq >truncated_R2.fastq
