datapool
A tool to generate synthetic floating point datasets. Currently the only datasets with a gaussian/normal distribution are supported. Further distributions can be added if the need may rise.
Install
Use stable cargo
release to install the toolset:
cargo install datapool
Use latest version from github:
git clone https://github.com/sqsh-project/datapool.git && \
cd datapool && \
cargo install --path .
Usage
The easiest way to generate a dataset is to specify mean
, standard deviation
and the number of numbers to be generated via num
:
datapool --mean 10 --std 2 --size 1000 # mandatory arguments
The default generates single-precision floating-point data. This can be changed using the --datatype
argument:
datapool --mean 10 --std 2 --size 1000 --datatype double
Should it be necessary to define a different endianess than the machine native the --endianess
argument can be used
datapool --mean 10 --std 2 --size 1000 --endianess little
By providing a --seed
value the generated data can be reproduced on different environments:
datapool --mean 10 --std 2 --size 1000 --seed 42
The data can be output to a file by piping the result to a file:
datapool --mean 10 --std 2 --size 1000 > /tmp/data.raw # save to file
For more information the help menu can be used: datapool --help
