Python library to convert from and to ARFF files

Installation

You can install the package using the command:
pip install arffutils

Running

The package contains four functions:

• pandas_dataframe_to_arff: receives as input a pandas dataframe and writes it to disk as an ARFF file.
• arff_to_pandas_dataframe: receives as input the path to an ARFF file and returns a pandas dataframe.
• csv_to_arff: receives as input the path to a CSV file and writes an ARFF file.
• arff_to_csv: receives as input the path to an ARFF file and writes a CSV file.

One can import any of the above functions and run it. For example, to convert an ARFF file to CSV, one can write:
