An assembly of a hypothetical genome with two linear chromosomes is assembled in three contigs. One of those contigs is misassembled. In its current misassembled state, this assembly cannot be completed by scaffolding alone. The misassembled contig must first be corrected by cutting the contig at the location of the misassembly. After correcting the missasembly, each chromosome may be assembled into a single scaffold
