Convenience function to generate simulated data and save each test set as a separate file

Description

Convenience function to generate simulated data and save each test set as a separate file

Usage

generateBiomarkerTestSets(
  workingDir = "",
  subset = "all",
  rounding = TRUE,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

`workingDir`	(character) specifying the working directory where 'workingDir/Data/biomarker' folders will be generated containing the simulated data
`subset`	(character, numeric, or data.frame) to specify for which subset the data should be generated and the algorithms later applied to. character options: 'all' (default) for all test sets; a distribution type: 'normal', 'skewed', 'heavilySkewed', 'shifted'; a biomarker: 'Hb', 'Ca', 'FT4', 'AST', 'LACT', 'GGT', 'TSH', 'IgE', 'CRP', 'LDH'; 'Runtime' for runtime analysis subset; numeric option: number of test sets per biomarker, e.g. 10; data.frame: customized subset of table with test set specification
`rounding`	(logical) indicating whether decimal places stated in test set specification should be applied (default, TRUE), if FALSE, data will be rounded to 5 decimal places to mimic unrounded data
`verbose`	(logical) indicating if the progress counter should be shown (default: TRUE)

Value

No return value, instead the data files are generated and saved in the workingDir

Examples


## Not run: 
workingDir <- "C:\\Temp\\RIbench\\"
generateBiomarkerTestSets(workingDir = workingDir)

## End(Not run)


# example generating a subset of 2 test sets per biomarker 
generateBiomarkerTestSets(workingDir = tempdir(), subset =  2)
