I ask this question as , to my surprise, here the COUNT command
does count missing values.
missing values v125 to v130 (-9).
count missval = v125 to v130 (-9).
results in 0 cases for missval.
So I reset the missing to a valid code.
Recode v125 to v130 (-9=9).
count missval = v125 to v130 (9).
results in about 66,000 cases without any missings (i.e. values
of 9) and in 18,000 with at least one missing.
This looks bizarre.
Any ideas for these varying results ?The manual says this: User-missing values of test variables are treated just like any other values. They are *not* treated as system-missing values. User-missing values that are criterion values or inside ranges of criterion values are counted as any other values. However (for numeric variables), keyword `MISSING' may be used to refer to all system- and user-missing values.
