Docker Setup

I have setup the docker container to run the model evaluation.

Initial Query

I have a list of several thousand file paths in /tmp/files. Write a python script that merges the content int 16 files called /tmp/merged_%d for i in 0..15 where each is approximately the same size. "/tmp/files" is a list of file paths, one per line.

# Usage
merge_files('/tmp/files', '/tmp')
This script does the following: 1. Reads the list of file paths from `/tmp/files` 2. Calculates total size and target size per split 3. Sorts files by size in descending order 4. Distributes files to 16 output files by always choosing the currently smallest file 5. Writes each file's contents to the chosen output file 6. Tracks and prints out the sizes of each merged file Key features: - Efficiently handles large numbers of files - Tries to balance file sizes across output files - Works with binary files - Minimal memory usage (reads and writes files in chunks) To use: 1. Create a file `/tmp/files` with file paths, one per line 2. Run the script 3. Merged files will be in `/tmp/merged_0` through `/tmp/merged_15` The algorithm ensures approximately equal sizes by always choosing the currently smallest output file when distributing.

This script does the following: 1. Reads the list of file paths from `/tmp/files` 2. Creates 16 output files in `/tmp/merged_0` to `/tmp/merged_15` 3. Distributes the input files across the output files proportionally 4. Copies the contents of each input file to its assigned output file 5. Handles potential errors when reading files 6. Uses binary mode to support all file types Key features: - Even distribution across output files - Handles different file sizes and types - Error handling for file reading - Uses memory-efficient `shutil.copyfileobj()` To use, simply run the script. It will read `/tmp/files` and create the merged files.

This script does the following: 1. Read the list of file paths from `/tmp/files` 2. Calculate total size and target size per output file 3. Sort input files by size to optimize distribution 4. Distribute files across 16 output files, trying to keep sizes approximately equal 5. Write files to `/tmp/merged_0` through `/tmp/merged_15` 6. Print out the size of each merged file for verification Key features: - Uses a greedy approach to distribute files - Sorts by file size to improve even distribution - Uses `shutil.copyfileobj()` for efficient file copying - Handles large numbers of files and varied file sizes To use, just run the script. It assumes `/tmp/files` contains file paths and you want 16 merged files.

Docker Setup

I have setup the docker container to run the model evaluation.

Initial Query

I have a list of several thousand file paths in /tmp/files. Write a python script that merges the content int 16 files called /tmp/merged_%d for i in 0..15 where each is approximately the same size. "/tmp/files" is a list of file paths, one per line.

This script does the following: 1. Read the list of file paths from `/tmp/files` 2. Calculate how many files should go into each merged file (approximately equally distributed) 3. Create 16 merged files at `/tmp/merged_0` through `/tmp/merged_15` 4. Iterate through the files, distributing them across the 16 merged files 5. Open each source file and append its contents to the appropriate merged file 6. Handle potential file reading errors Key features: - Uses binary mode to handle any file type - Distributes files as evenly as possible - Adds error handling for file reading - Adds a newline between merged files for clarity You can run this script, and it will create 16 merged files in `/tmp/` with contents distributed approximately equally.
