Create a directory structure for the simulation

Create a two-level directory structure. If the first-level argument is NULL, we look for and, if needed, create the directory 'socsim' in the current temporary directory. If the second-level argument is NULL, we create a directory named like 'socsim_sim_' followed by a random component in the first-level directory.

Usage

create_simulation_folder(basedir = NULL, simdir = NULL)

Arguments

basedir

A string. Optional. First-level directory where the simulation-specific directory will be created. Defaults to file.path(tempdir(), "socsim").

simdir

A string. Optional. Simulation-specific directory which will be created within 'basedir'. Defaults to 'socsim_sim_' plus a random component created with tempfile().

Value

A string. The full path to the simulation-specific directory.
