link.sequence Function (GPL)

Syntax

link.sequence(<algebra>)

or

link.sequence(<binning function>)

or

link.sequence(<statistic function>)

<algebra>. Graph algebra, such as x*y. Refer to Brief Overview of GPL Algebra for an introduction to graph algebra.

<binning function>. A binning function.

<statistic function>. Another statistic function. The result of the embedded statistic is used to calculate link.sequence.

Description

Connects the values in the order in which their associated cases appear in the dataset. This function is typically used with the edge graphic element. In many cases, the result is the same as what you obtain by using the path graphic element without a statistic.

Examples

Figure 1. Example: Creating a sequence graph
ELEMENT: edge(position(link.sequence(x*y)))
