1. dataframe - It is a pandas dataframe which has atleast 3 columns(including the first column with names). It should only have numerical values. Any non-numerical value should be encoded before passing it to function.
2. weights - It is a string of comma(,) separated numbers which tell the weight of each criteria.
3. impacts - It is a string of comma(,) separated + and - sign showing the impact of criteria on decision making.

The function return the original pandas dataframe with 2 more columns added, which are Topsis Score and Rank.

topsis.get_score(dataframe,weights,impacts)

Example

data.csv (Input):

contestent	sur	tal	lah	pitch	sharpness
a	4	18	6.5	35	15
b	6	14	4	38	19
c	6	12	5	42	20
d	8	26	7	50	25
e	3	14	6	40	14

import pandas as pd
df = pd.read_csv('data.csv')
weights = "+,+,+,+,+"
impacts = "1,1,1,1,1"
print(topsis.get_score(df,weights,impacts))

Output:

contestent	sur	tal	lah	pitch	sharpness	output
a	4	18	6.5	35	15	3
b	6	14	4	38	19	4
c	6	12	5	42	20	2
d	8	26	7	50	25	1
e	3	14	6	40	14	5
