A small tool to do the statistics legwork on benchmarks etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Prepare your data into two files, one number per line
|
||
|
|
run
|
||
|
|
./ministat data_before data_after
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
and see what it says.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You need at least three data points in each data set, but the more
|
||
|
|
you have the better your result generally gets.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here are two typical outputs:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
x _1
|
||
|
|
+ _2

Here nothing can be concluded from the numbers. It _may_ be possible to
|
||
|
|
prove something if many more measurements are made, but with only five
|
||
|
|
measurements, nothing is proven.

Here we have a clearcut difference, not very big, but clear and unambiguous.
