💖 GBBOOT 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about gbboot — that's the User Commands section of the manual, and she is lowkey a whole vibe. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

gbboot — bootstrap user provided data, and honestly? iconic behaviour. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

gbboot [options]

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

So what does she do? Data bootstrap, periodt. That means random sampling with replacement, or the addition of noise. Pick your fighter. 🥊

In that last case — the noise one — the option -n sets the number of times the entire sample is printed with a random noise added. The noise is uniformly distributed around zero with semi-width equal to the minimal positive distance between consecutives observations times a fraction set with option... and yes, the sentence does just end right there in the original, no cap, the fraction option is never named. We respect the mystery. 🙈

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -n — set the number of deviates (default = sample size). yeah, default is literally just your sample size, she said match my energy 💖
  • -O — type of output (default 0):
    • 0 — flatten input in one distribution
    • 1 — multivariate output: rows with independent columns
    • 2 — multivariate output: rows with fixed columns
    • 3 — flatten and smoothed (EDF linear interpolation)
    • 4 — add noise to data
    • 5 — multivariate output: rows with fixed blocks
  • -e — noise term (default .5)
  • -R — set the rng seed (default 0)
  • -F — specify the input fields separators (default " \t")
  • -h — print this help
  • -v — verbose mode
