Defining the Project object

We start by defining the Project object.

using ProjectManagement

proj = Project(
    (
        start=0,
        finish=0,
    ),
    [
        :start => :finish,
    ]
)

Project{NamedTuple{(:start, :finish), Tuple{Int64, Int64}}}((start = 0, finish = 0), [:start => :finish])

Critical Path

We can compute the critical path and it's cost using the critical_path function.

critical_path(proj)

[:start, :finish] => 0.0

We can compute all the path costs using path_durations. For example we can find the critical path and near critical paths as:

path_durations(proj)[1:min(3, end)]

1-element Vector{Pair{Vector{Symbol}, Float64}}:
 [:start, :finish] => 0.0

Sampling Durations

Using that Project object we can sample possible durations of the project. Which allows for statistical analysis of possible outcomes.

julia> using Statistics

julia> duration_samples = rand(proj, 100_000);

julia> mean(duration_samples)
0.0

julia> minimum(duration_samples)
0.0

julia> quantile(duration_samples, 0.25)
0.0

julia> median(duration_samples)
0.0

julia> quantile(duration_samples, 0.75)
0.0

julia> maximum(duration_samples)
0.0

We can plot the distribution showing the probability density function for project completion duration.
