Manual

The following sections briefly describe how to run DATAVER from the command- line, the required input and the produced output files.

Introduction

DATAVER may be used to average two or more exerimental data files. Use cases include averageing of multiple frames of a single data collection, or multiple sample or buffer measurements.

In the case of only one input file, the output contains the data of the single input.

Running dataver

Usage:

$ dataver [OPTIONS] <SASDATA(S)>

OPTIONS known by DATAVER are described in next section, the required FILE arguments in the section on input files.

Command-Line Arguments and Options

DATAVER requires the following command line arguments:

Argument	Description
SASDATA	One or more experimental SAS data (.dat) files.

Absolute as well as relative paths to data files are accepted. Instead of a file name, one of the arguments may be given as ‘-‘ to read data from stdin.

DATAVER recognizes following command-line options:

Short option	Long option	Description
-o	--output <FILE>	Specify a FILE where to write the averaged data to, the FILE may contain relative or absolute path components. By default the result is written to stdout.
-v	--version	Print version information and exit.
-h	--help	Print a summary of arguments, options, and exit.

dataver input files

DATAVER expects experimental SAS data (.dat).

dataver output files

The produced output file contains the average of all input data sets.

Examples

$ dataver frame_001.dat frame_002.dat frame_003.dat frame_004.dat -o average.dat
