Despite what the manual says, it would appear that this hasn't yet been implemented. I've raised a bug at https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?26056 Until this is fixed, I suggest you create a new variable to dichotimize these values, using a syntax similar to: compute cutpoint = (marita

Binomial test using a single value

2009-03-30 Thread James BRANFORD
May I please have clarification of the correct syntax to type to conduct a Binomial test using a single value? I note that the PSPP manual (page 99 of the pdf version) states: "If a single value appears after the variable list, then that value is used as the threshold to partition the observ

Dear fellows, Sincerely, I am a bit disappointed with PSPP. After some struggle, I finally succeeded to make it install and work. Its features, however, are miles of distance of the inspirational SPSS. Although PSPP has a similar interface and a similar way to select variables, only the most basi
