Split Files (ONEWAY command)

  • When split-file processing is in effect, the first variables in the matrix data file are the split variables, followed by ROWTYPE_, the independent variable, VARNAME_, and the dependent variables.
  • A full set of matrix materials is written for each split-file group defined by the split variable(s).
  • A split variable cannot have the same variable name as any other variable written to the matrix data file.
  • If split-file processing is in effect when a matrix is written, the same split file must be in effect when that matrix is read by any procedure.
  • Generally, matrix rows, independent variables, and dependent variables can be in any order in the matrix data file read by keyword IN. However, all split-file variables must precede variable ROWTYPE_, and all split-group rows must be consecutive. ONEWAY ignores unrecognized ROWTYPE_ values.
