get underlying type's number of values

! For n != 0, returns k, such that pow10 := 10^(k-1) <= n < 10^k. For n == 0, returns 1 and sets pow10 := 1. */

check termination based on change in cost value

get the underlying value as string

For debugging only

! For a normalized diyfp w = f * 2^e, this function returns a (normalized) cached power-of-ten c = f_c * 2^e_c, such that the exponent of the product

get the underlying value as index

Return list of run directories given an experiments spec :param base_path: base directory to search in :param spec: experime

! Generates V = buffer * 10^decimal_exponent, such that M- <= V <= M+. M- and M+ must be normalized and share the same exponent -60 <= e <= -32. */

Returns True if the folder may be a run directory, based on the present files This is intended to be used for auto-detecting run dire

Load a set experiments from log files or cache If there is more than one experiment with the same name, an error is raised.

Load a ba_log file from a directory First looks for .ubjson file, then falls back to .json, and finally returns None of not found.
