Problem with DO-REPEAT

2013-08-06 Thread aitmeus2

Hi,

i'm trying to append yearly datafiles for some countries using dhe DO
REPEAT-command.
Unfortunately i cant figure out how to do it.

DO REPEAT country  = at be bg ch cy cz dk ee es fi fr gr hu ie is it  lu lv
mt nl no pl pt ro se si sk uk.
GET
/FILE= country2008_y.sav.
ADD FILES
/FILE= country2009_y.sav
/FILE= country2010_y.sav.
SAVE
/OUTFILE= country.sav.
END REPEAT.

Please excuse me if i just didnt recognize some trivial error...
Thanks a lot!

I don't know if it's possible to actually construct the filename the way you're 
trying to do it.

But you can certainly concatenate all the files, like this.


GET FILE='at.sav'.
DO REPEAT country  = be.sav bg.sav ch.sav.
ADD FILES /FILE=* /FILE=country .
END REPEAT.

save outfile='allcountries.sav'.

Re: Importing quanvert file format .pkd to PSPP

2013-08-06 Thread John Darrington
If you think the FSF should consider PSPP a 'high priority' project, please 
write to campai...@fsf.org and tell them.

Collecting donations has been considered before, but there are issues to 
consider
such as currency exchange, liability and trust.

If you have a specific feature that you want implemented, and are prepared to 
pay
a professional price to get it done, there are companies which can do that for 
you.  One such company is www.cellform.com

If you want to volunteer to help development, then you are very welcome to do 
so.

 From what I understand there are few developers currently working in PSPP.
 
 PSPP seems like a great project, could become a high-priority project of 
the FSF?. I understand that the support of this campaign aims to redirect 
efforts to the software developers promoted in the campaign.
 
 PSPP is a great effort to be a free replacement for SPSS and perhaps an 
alternative to other similar software such as SAS or Stata. PSPP efforts are 
different from Octave, but equally valuable.
 
 Also, could add to its web site donations, and promoting student projects 
for GSoC or similar.
 
 As a user might ask for much and could not contribute code, but could make 
some money that could be invested in your valuable time or contract hours for 
other developers to work on PSPP.
 
 
 Has any other ideas? a small campaign donations could be useful.
