Replication package for "Method Chaining Redux: An Empirical Study of Method Chaining in Java, Kotlin, and Python"

This dataset includes scripts and data files used to generate all analysis and results from the paper.  A README.md file is included for details on using the scripts.

The dataset is quite large.  It is broken down into three archives.  All scripts are in replication-pkg.zip and the other 2 files only contain data.  So if you want to just inspect the analysis, you only need that single zip.

If you grab the data-cached.zip file and extract it, it will need around 3GB of space.  This is the processed dataset stored in Parquet files.  Use this if you want to just recreate the tables/figures from the paper.

If you want to make changes to the analyses, you will need the raw data in data-raw.zip.  This will need around 29GB of space once extracted.  If you then generate the CSV files from those TXT files (which you will need to do for any custom analysis), you will need an additional 22GB of space.
