NAME

pkstatascii - program to calculate basic statistics from text file

SYNOPSIS

pkstatascii -i input [ -c column ] [ options ] [ advanced options ]

DESCRIPTION

pkstatascii calculates basic statistics of a data series in a text file.

OPTIONS

-i filename , --input filename

name of the input text file

-size , --size

sample size

-rnd number , --rnd number

generate random numbers

-dist function , --dist function

distribution for generating random numbers, see http://www.gn/software/gsl/manual/gsl-ref_toc.html#TOC320 (only uniform and Gaussian supported yet)

-rnda value , --rnda value

first parameter for random distribution (mean value in case of Gaussian)

-rndb value , --rndb value

second parameter for random distribution (standard deviation in case of Gaussian)

-mean , --mean

calculate mean

-median , --median

calculate median

-var , --var

calculate variance

-stdev , --stdev

calculate standard deviation

-skew , --skewness

calculate skewness

-kurt , --kurtosis

calculate kurtosis

-sum , --sum

calculate sum of column

-mm , --minmax

calculate minimum and maximum value

-min , --min

calculate minimum value

-max , --max

calculate maximum value

-hist , --hist

calculate histogram

-hist2d , --hist2d

calculate 2-dimensional histogram based on two columns

-nbin value , --nbin value

number of bins to calculate histogram

-rel , --relative

use percentiles for histogram to calculate histogram

-kde , --kde

Use Kernel ⟨ http://pktools.nongnu.org/html/classKernel.html⟩ density estimation when producing histogram. The standard deviation is estimated based on Silverman’s rule of thumb

-cor , --correlation

calculate Pearson produc-moment correlation coefficient between two columns (defined by -c <col1> -c <col2>)

-rmse , --rmse

calculate root mean square error between two columns (defined by -c <col1> -c <col2>)

-reg , --regression

calculate linear regression between two columns and get correlation coefficient (defined by -c <col1> -c <col2>)

-regerr , --regerr

calculate linear regression between two columns and get root mean square error (defined by -c <col1> -c <col2>)

-v level , --verbose level

verbose mode when positive

Advanced options
-src_min
value , --src_min value

start reading source from this minimum value

-src_max value , --src_max value

stop reading source from this maximum value

-fs separator , --fs separator

field separator.

-r startrow [ -r endrow ], --range startrow [ --range endrow ]

rows to start/end reading. Use -r 1 -r 10 to read first 10 rows where first row is header. Use 0 to read all rows with no header.

-o , --output

output the selected columns

-t , --transpose

transpose input ascii vector (use in combination with --output )

-comment character , --comment character

comment character
