Measurement Level (GGRAPH command)
You can change a variable's measurement level temporarily by appending
the qualifier [LEVEL=measurement level]
to the name in the variable specification. (The variable's measurement
level in the dictionary is unaffected.) Valid values for the measurement
level are SCALE
, NOMINAL
, and ORDINAL
. Currently, the measurement level qualifier is used to influence
the behavior of the REPORTMISSING
keyword. If the measurement level is set to SCALE
, missing values are not reported for that variable,
even if the value of the REPORTMISSING
keyword is YES
. If you are
using the NAME
qualifier for
the same variable, both qualifiers are enclosed in the same pair of
square brackets. For example:
GGRAPH
/GRAPHDATASET NAME="graphdataset" VARIABLES=jobcat[NAME="empcat" LEVEL=NOMINAL] COUNT()
/GRAPHSPEC SOURCE=GPLFILE("simplebarchart.gpl").
