synthetic_table: Create the blueprints of a synthetic table

In fstpackage/syntheticbench: Synthetic dataset creation and serialization benchmarks

Description

Create the blueprints of a synthetic table

Usage

synthetic_table(..., id = "synthetic table", construct_model = FALSE)

Arguments

...	column templates created with the various template_ methods or a single dataset
id	ID of the synthetic table (e.g. 'fst homepage dataset')
construct_model	If parameter ... is a table, this parameter is used to determine how the table model is generated. When 'construct_model = TRUE', the columns from the table are used to construct an approximation of the column's distribution. This approximation is used to generate the actual data. When 'construct_model = FALSE', the whole table is stored and generation of new columns is done by taking random samples from the original table.

Value

a synthetic table template that can be used to generate synthetic data using generate()
