NAME

       ea_transpose - Compute the transpose of the restart matrix

SYNOPSIS

       ea_transpose [-v] [-l <index>] <file> <outfile>

DESCRIPTION

       Compute the transpose of the restart matrix of <file>, output to <outfile>.

       -v: Increase verbosity.

       -l <index>:    Read the <index> substring of 1000000 samples.

       <file>: File with (blocks of) 1000 sets of restart data, each set being 1000 samples.  The
              result is saved in <file>.column This program computes the transpose of the restart
              matrix,  and  produces  column data appropriate testing with the other tools.  This
              helps to support the testing described in SP800-90B Section 3.1.2 #3

       --version: Prints tool version information
