DTR2NetLogo

Perl script to convert from Decision Tree output from R's rpart() function to NetLogo code

To use it, save the output from a call to rpart() or rpartScore() (or print of the return value) to a text file. Then call this script from the commandline, giving the text file as the first argument, and the NetLogo output file you want created as the second argument. It is designed to work with a specific R script that creates a number of trees, but should be modifiable for more general contexts.

This code was created for a specific analysis in the LOCAW (Low Carbon at Work) FP7 (Framework Programme 7) EC (European Commission) funded project (grant agreement number 265155, website (still active at April 2017) http://www.locaw-fp7.com/).
