Sorting and Ranking Data
Sorting and Ranking commands are found under the Manip menu.
- Ranking
- produces a new variable for each selected variable. The
new variable records the position of each case in sorted order
of the variable.
- Sort on Y, Carry X's
- creates a new relation in which the cases have been reordered
by values of the variable chosen as y. All x variables
selected are also copied and reordered in the new relation. A new
variable holding the original case index of each new row also appears.
- Sorting and Ranking Options
