Installation

How to install the TOPSIS package

Using pip install:

pip install 102217053-topsis


The output will then be saved in a newly created CSV file whose name will be provided in the command line by the user.

## Input File [input.csv]:
Topsis mathematical operations to be performed on the input file which contains a dataset having different fields.

## Weights ["1,1,1"]:
The weights assigned to the different parameters in the dataset should be passed in the argument, separated by commas.

## Impacts ["+,+,-"]:
The impacts are passed to consider which parameters have a positive impact on the decision and which ones have a negative impact. Only `+` and `-` values should be passed and should be separated with `,` only.

## Output File [output.csv]:
This argument is used to pass the path of the result file where we want the rank and performance score to be stored.
