# MooseAlgos
Moose Algos contains generic libraries for various analysis algorithms.
## Install MooseAlgos
To install MooseAlgos on your Pharo image you can just execute the following script:
```Smalltalk
Metacello new
githubUser: 'moosetechnology' project: 'MooseAlgos' commitish: 'master' path: 'src';
baseline: 'MooseAlgos';
load
```
To add MooseAlgos to your baseline just add this:
```Smalltalk
spec
baseline: 'MooseAlgos'
with: [ spec repository: 'github://moosetechnology/MooseAlgos:master/src' ]
```
Note that you can replace the #master by another branch as #development or a tag as #v1.0.0, #v1.? or #v1.2.? .
## Clustering
see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_clustering
- [complete linkage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complete-linkage_clustering)
- single linkage
- average linkage
- centroid
- [Wards method](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ward%27s_method)
### Example:
```Smalltalk
input := #(#(1 2 3 5) #(11 12 15) #(21 22 23 25) #(31 32 35) #(41 42 43 45 47)).
clusty := MalClusterEngine with: input flatten shuffle.
clusty hierarchicalClusteringUsing: #centroid.
clusters := clusty dendrogram breakInto: 5.
```
## Word compacting
### Example:
```Smalltalk
(MalKontractor reduce: 'Hello' upTo: 3) >>> 'Hlo'
```
## Linear algebra
- operations with matrices
## Version management
This project use semantic versionning to define the releases. This mean that each stable release of the project will get associate a version number of the form `vX.Y.Z`.
- **X** define the major version number
- **Y** define the minor version number
- **Z** define the patch version number
When a release contains only bug fixes, the patch number increase. When the release contains new features backward compatibles, the minor version increase. When the release contains breaking changes, the major version increase.
Thus, it should be safe to depend on a fixed major version and moving minor version of this project.
