Cost Distribution and Tornado Diagram Visualization

This repository contains two scripts for visualizing cost distributions and tornado diagrams. The first script generates PDF and CDF plots based on expected value and standard deviation. The second script cleans WBS data and plots a tornado diagram.

Setup

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/ffreider/cost_estimation.git
cd cost_estimation

Requirements

• Python 3.x
• numpy
• matplotlib
• scipy
• pandas

You can install the required libraries using pip:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

1. Cost Distribution Visualization

To run the script:

python plot_pdf_and_cdf.py <expected_value> <std_deviation>

Example:

python plot_pdf_and_cdf.py 2173391 833540

2. Tornado Diagram Visualization

To run the script:

python plot_tornado.py <file_path> <level>

Example:

python plot_tornado.py "path_to_file.csv" 2
