# Arff

An Arff generator written in Pharo.

Arff is a format defined by [Weka](http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/ml/weka/) to be used for data importation.

This project implements a representation of weka's arff concepts as objects in Pharo  and is able to generate valid arff strings.

See [Arff file spec](https://weka.wikispaces.com/ARFF) to learn more about this format.
