Lorem datum is a pseudo-random generator based data generation suite, which can be used to simulate some real-life data. It provides some nice features that make it easier than rolling your own data generation functions.

Build status

Master:
Develop:

• Set the amount of variation between consecutive data points
• Set the probability of NA values (or disallow NA values)
• Set hard lower/upper bounds for generated values
• Ability to provide the PRNG seed, so that data generation is repeatable
• Use the date/time generator to create time series

• Temporal:

  • Date/time (non-random, using java.time.LocalDateTime)

• Categorical:

  • Boolean
  • Categorical (any Object)

• Numerical:

  • Integer
  • Float
  • Double
  • Long

Documentation (javadocs) can found on the GitHub Pages website

Unit tests are provided in the (/src/test) directory, using TestNG. They follow the same package structure and all the code on the generators should be sufficiently covered with tests to guarantee proper workings.
