NPAR TESTS

NPAR TESTS is available in Statistics Base Edition.

NPAR TESTS is a collection of nonparametric tests. These tests make minimal assumptions about the underlying distribution of the data.

**Default if the subcommand is omitted.

@@ An error message is produced when varlist is specified for the POISSON keyword.

††Available only if Sampling and Testing is installed (available only on Windows operating systems).

This command reads the active dataset and causes execution of any pending commands. See the topic Command Order for more information.

Syntax for the NPAR TESTS command can be generated from the dialogs accessible from the Nonparametric Tests item on the Analyze menu.
