Running of Program

[robinkarmakar]

Hi Michael,

I have been trying to run your program from a different set of ways. Could you possible provide a comprehensive list of step by step commands(which includes pre-reqs such as kotlin) that I can use to execute the program?

Hi,

what exactly do you want to achieve? Do you want to use the library in a project of yours or do you just want to provide a data set to the algorithm?

If you want to use the library as part of your own program, the easiest way is to include it as a Maven or Gradle dependency as stated in the Readme. If you don't use a build management tool, you can also download the latest jar file from the "releases" section of this Github page and add it to your project's classpath.

If you just want to provide some data set to the algorithm to see how it works, the easiest way would be to checkout the source code and built it from with the IDE of your choice. The project uses Gradle for dependency management so all required dependency should automatically be fetched. There are some small example datasets included to be used by the JUnit tests. Just run these tests to see how things work. As this project is intended to be used as a library, there is no main class provided to run the algorithm as standalone.

Hello,

I am trying trying to use the library to apply in my data set. I followed the instruction on Searching frequent item sets. using a minimum support and i have also implemented the DataIterator class and the Named Item class.

However, I am getting the error "Failed to open file". I cannot access my text file. Can you please provide an instruction on how to access text file and is there a specific location where should I put my text file?

I am new to Kotlin and I cannot find a solution online. I would really appreciate the help!
