Generates a number of datasets from one metadata scenario

Description

Generates a number of datasets from one metadata scenario

Usage

generateDatabase(
  name = NULL,
  setnr = NULL,
  draws = 1,
  seedinfo = list(100, paste(R.version$major, R.version$minor, sep = "."), RNGkind()),
  metaseedinfo = list(100, paste(R.version$major, R.version$minor, sep = "."),
    RNGkind()),
  file = NULL,
  seedincrement = 1
)

Arguments

name

The path to the setup file

setnr

The metadata scenario, as taken from the info table

draws

The number of datasets that are drawn from the metadata scenario

seedinfo

The random number generator seed parameters

metaseedinfo

If necessary, a separate set of random number generator parameters for the metadata (e.g. cluster centers)

file

A custom file name for the output database. Defaults to the pattern setupname_setnr_seed.db

seedincrement

The random number seed will by default increase by 1 for each draw from the base seed given in seedinfo unless specified otherwise here

Value

An SQLite database that contains the desired number of data sets drawn from a certain metadata scenario
