topsis package for decision making

Topsis

TOPSIS (Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) is a decision-making method based on the concept that the best solution is the one closest to the positive-ideal solution and farthest from the negative-ideal one. The alternatives are ranked using an overall index calculated from the distances to the ideal solutions.

Function Parameters

The topsis function takes four arguments:

1. Data.csv file: The input CSV file containing the data for decision-making.
2. Weights: A string representing the weights for each criterion, separated by commas. For example, "1,1,1,1,1".
3. Impacts: A string representing the impacts for each criterion, specified as either '+' or '-'. For example, "+,-,+,-,+".
4. Result file: The name of the output file that will contain Topsis Score and Rank information.
