Format of the Matrix Data File (ONEWAY command)

  • The matrix data file includes two special variables created by the program: ROWTYPE_ and VARNAME_.
  • ROWTYPE_ is a short string variable with values MEAN, STDDEV, and N.
  • VARNAME_ is a short string variable that never has values for procedure ONEWAY. VARNAME_ is included with the matrix materials so that matrices written by ONEWAY can be read by procedures that expect to read a VARNAME_ variable.
  • The independent variable is between variables ROWTYPE_ and VARNAME_.
  • The remaining variables in the matrix file are the dependent variables.
