R-Tree using STR

This directory contains 2 script files which runs independently of each other:

1. run_with_gcc.sh (runs the C code and gives the output in the terminal)
2. plot_graph.sh (plots graphs in Python)

The code is contained in a single file main.c.

The code reads data from data.txt file, which is passed as a parameter in the main function. By default b or M =4 for the dataset of 21 points For larger datasets you can set the value of M (we tested with M=128) by changing the declaration of M in line 23

To execute the code, follow these steps:

1. Run the below script/instructions for getting the C code output using the command:

bash run_with_gcc.sh

The above script file compiles the code using gcc and then stores the mbrs contained in rect_data.csv file.

2. To view the plotting results, run the below script using the command:

bash plot_graph.sh

Note: The plot_graph.sh script runs the C code and then sets up a Python virtual environment, runs the Python code, and saves the plot in mbr.png.
