\title{Randomly Split a Data Set into Halves}
\usage{
splitSample(dataset, path = "default", div = 2, type = "default",
name = "splitSample")
}
\arguments{
\item{dataset}{The original data set to be divided. Can be a file path to a
*.csv or *.dat file (headers will automatically be detected) or an R object
(matrix or dataframe). (Windows users: file path must be specified using
FORWARD SLASHES (\code{/}) ONLY.)}
\item{path}{File path to folder for output data sets. NOT REQUIRED if
dataset is a filename. Specify ONLY if dataset is an R object, or desired
output folder is not that of original data set. If path is specified as
"object", output data sets will be returned as a list, and not saved to hard
drive.}
\item{div}{Number of output data sets. NOT REQUIRED if default, 2 halves.}
\item{type}{Output file format ("dat" or "csv"). NOT REQUIRED unless desired
output formatting differs from that of input, or dataset is an R object and
csv formatting is desired.}
\item{name}{Output file name. NOT REQUIRED unless desired output name
differs from that of input, or input dataset is an R object. (If input is an
R object and name is not specified, name will be "splitSample".)}
}
\value{
If \code{path = "object"}, \code{list} of output data sets.
Otherwise, output will saved to hard drive in the same format as input.
}
\description{
This function randomly splits a data set into two halves, and saves the
resulting data sets to the same folder as the original.
}
\details{
This function randomly orders the rows of a data set, divides the data set
into two halves, and saves the halves to the same folder as the original
data set, preserving the original formatting. Data set type (*.csv or \emph{.dat)
and formatting (headers) are automatically detected, and output data sets
will preserve input type and formatting unless specified otherwise. Input
can be in the form of a file path (}.dat or *.csv), or an R object (matrix or
dataframe). If input is an R object and path is default, output data sets
will be returned as a list object.
}
\examples{
#### Input is .dat file
#splitSample("C:/Users/Default/Desktop/MYDATA.dat")
#### Output saved to "C:/Users/Default/Desktop/" in .dat format
#### Names are "MYDATA_s1.dat" and "MYDATA_s2.dat"
#### Input is R object
## Split C02 dataset from the datasets package
library(datasets)
splitMyData <- splitSample(CO2, path = "object")
summary(splitMyData[[1]])
summary(splitMyData[[2]])
#### Output object splitMyData becomes list of output data sets
#### Input is .dat file in "C:/" folder
#splitSample("C:/testdata.dat", path = "C:/Users/Default/Desktop/", type = "csv")
#### Output saved to "C:/Users/Default/Desktop/" in *.csv format
#### Names are "testdata_s1.csv" and "testdata_s2.csv"
#### Input is R object
#splitSample(myData, path = "C:/Users/Default/Desktop/", name = "splitdata")
#### Output saved to "C:/Users/Default/Desktop/" in *.dat format
#### Names are "splitdata_s1.dat" and "splitdata_s2.dat"
