Installation

Keep in mind that this project is still WORK IN PROGRESS, so changes will be made.

cd $GOPATH/src
go get github.com/AndreaGhizzoni/zenium
./$GOPATH/bin/zenium -h

Structure of Generated Data

All generated data will be in the following format:

Slice

./$GOPATH/bin/zenium rslice -l 50 -o vector.txt -m 1 -M 10

This command generate a file called vector.txt that contains 50 random numbers, from 1 to 10 using current time as seed to generate it.

The file format is the follow:

n
x1 x2 [...] xn

Where n is the given length of vector (50 in the example) and x1 x2 [...] xn are all the generated numbers (with the properties see previously in the example) separated by space.

Matrix

./$GOPATH/bin/zenium matrix -o matrix.txt -c 10 -r 10 -m 1 -M 10

This command generate a file called matrix.txt that contains a 10x10 matrix of random numbers, from 1 to 10 using current time as seed to generate it.

The file format is the follow:

m n
x11 [...] x1n
x21
[...]
xm1 [...] xmn

Where m n is the given size of matrix (10 10 in the example) and listed below that all the elements of matrix: columns separated by space and rows by new line.

Bound

./$GOPATH/bin/zenium bound -o bound.txt -m -10 -M 10 -w 3 -a 10

This command generate a file called bound.txt that contains a list of 10 bounds of width 3, all in between -10 and 10.

The file format is the follow:

a
x1 y1
x2 y2
[...]
xa ya

Where a is the amount of bounds listed below, and for each line the bound is expressed as lower bound x and upper bound y, where m <= x < y <= M.

TODO

• Slice (aka Vector)
• Matrix
• Complete -output|-o flag
• Bound
• Using math/big instead of all int64
• Using crypto/rand in certain cases
• Ordered Slice
• Multiple generation with a single command
