Hi All,
My dataset includes more than 60 variables (one is named
(1-ai)*wao - ai*wio) and I was wondedering if there was a quick way to
determine whether that (and the other 60 variables in this one dataset)
might look a lot better if a light_centered palette and 15 fill_levels
centered on 0 were used. The
variables in the dataset are not all similar to each
other, and to complicate matters, I don't know what 30% of them are, so
I have no idea what their plot products should look like.
I've decided though, that there isn't a good way to do this, other than
to just look at the data and play with the plot options. For a 1 GB
dataset though, this process is a bit time consuming, so I just wanted
to make sure I wasn't doing this the 'hard way' when there might be some
wonderful little utility that everyone except me knew about!. It would
be something like ...
foreach V (all vars selected)
let MINS = list var[i=@min, ,j=@min, k=@min, l=@min]
let MAXS = list var[i=@max, ,j=@max, k=@max, l=@max]
print MINS and MAXS to a summary table
plot (histogram of var[values])
and I'd run that and go off kayaking while it generated pretty pictures
and a summary table of stats for all 60 variables in the 1 GB dataset.
Thanks,
Cyndy
