DISCRIMINANT

DISCRIMINANT is available in Statistics Base Edition.

DISCRIMINANT performs linear discriminant analysis for two or more groups.

**Default if subcommand or keyword is omitted.

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

Syntax for the DISCRIMINANT command can be generated from the Discriminant Analysis dialog.
