Statscraft 0.7.0, release v0.7.0

MATRIX DATA

Read matrix materials (correlations, means, counts) as a matrix data file.

Syntax

MATRIX DATA VARIABLES=varlist [/FILE=INLINE | 'path'] [/FORMAT=[LIST | FREE] [LOWER | UPPER | FULL]
            [DIAGONAL | NODIAGONAL]] [/SPLIT=varlist] [/FACTORS=varlist] [/CELLS=n] [/N=n]
            [/CONTENTS=[CORR] [COV] [MAT] [MSE] [DFE] [MEAN] [STDDEV | SD] [N_VECTOR | N] [N_SCALAR]
            [N_MATRIX] [COUNT] [PROX] [(types of within-cells records) ...]].
The new active dataset holds the split variables (F4.0), ROWTYPE_ (A8), the factors (F4.0),
VARNAME_ (A8, wider for longer names) and the continuous variables (F10.4): those of
VARIABLES that are neither ROWTYPE_ nor a split or factor, which come last on VARIABLES.
With ROWTYPE_ on VARIABLES each record starts with its fields in the order of VARIABLES:
the record type (a name or a three-letter abbreviation, quoted or not) and the split and
factor values (. for a pooled record). Without it CONTENTS gives the records in order, CORR
when left out; types in parentheses are within-cells records, read for each of the CELLS
cells with the factor values first. A matrix has one record per variable: LOWER and UPPER
give a triangle, which is mirrored, FULL the whole matrix; with NODIAGONAL a correlation
diagonal is 1 and any other diagonal missing. N_SCALAR gives one value for every variable.
N=n adds an N record to each split. LIST starts each row on a new record (a row may go on
over the next records; values left on a record are ignored with a warning), FREE reads the
values as one stream. Values are separated by blanks or commas, and by + and - when not
after D or E; . is missing. SPLIT may name one variable that is not on VARIABLES: the sets
of materials are then numbered 1, 2, ... The result is split by the split variables. The
data follow between BEGIN DATA and END DATA, or come from FILE. FACTOR, CLUSTER and the
other procedures with MATRIX=IN(*) read it.

Example

MATRIX DATA VARIABLES=ROWTYPE_ v1 TO v3 /FORMAT=UPPER NODIAGONAL.
BEGIN DATA
MEAN 5 4 3
SD 3 2 1
N 9 9 9
CORR .6 .7
CORR .8
END DATA.
