nanostat

Like ministat, but smaller?

A Rust library and CLI tool for evaluating whether two or more sets of measurements are statistically different. It does this by performing a Welch's t-test at a particular confidence level, making it suitable for small sets of measurements (e.g., multiple runs of a benchmark). It's inspired largely by FreeBSD's ministat (written by Poul-Henning Kamp).

$ nanostat examples/iguana examples/leopard examples/chameleon 
examples/leopard:
	Difference at 95% confidence!
		643.50 > 300.00 ± 293.97, p = 0.026080480978720635
examples/chameleon:
	No difference at 95% confidence.
