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:
Use latest version from github:

Usage
The easiest way to generate a dataset is to specify mean
, standard deviation
and the number of numbers to be generated via num
:
The default generates single-precision floating-point data. This can be changed using the --datatype
argument:
Should it be necessary to define a different endianess than the machine native the --endianess
argument can be used
By providing a --seed
value the generated data can be reproduced on different environments:
The data can be output to a file by piping the result to a file:
