Spss Base 9.0 Syntax Reference Guide

by SPSS Inc

Provides a reference to the command syntax for the SPSS Base system for data management and analysis. An introductory overview helps readers determine which commands are best suited to the job at hand. A section on Universals describes rules of command syntax and documents those components of the command language that appear in many commands, such as the arithmetic, string, date, and other functions available in many data transformation commands. SPSS commands are presented in alphabetical order, and the command syntax is illustrated with many examples. Appendices provide information on command states, complex file definition, the macro facility, and import/export character sets. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
