stats
stats is a simple command utility for computing basics statistics on plain text data files.
The input to stats can be any plain text single column data file. Stats will interpret each line in the input file as a 64bit floating point number and then compute statistics on the parsed data. Currently stats evaluates the following quantities:
- mean
- variance
- median
- min
- max
Please note that the computation of the median currently requires stat to store the data internally and thus consumes memory on the order of the data set itself.

Overview ¶
stats is a simple commandline helper script for calculating basic statistics on a data file expected to consist of a single column of floating point numbers. NOTE: Currently stats will read in all the data to compute the statistics and thus require memory on the order of the data set size.
