ROWTYPE_ ¶If VARIABLES includes ROWTYPE_, each case’s
ROWTYPE_ indicates the type of data contained in the row.
See Matrix File Row Types, for a list of supported row types.
ROWTYPE_ ¶This example shows a simple use of MATRIX DATA with
ROWTYPE_ plus 8 variables named var01 through
var08.
Because ROWTYPE_ is the first variable in VARIABLES,
it appears first on each line. The first three lines in the example
data have ROWTYPE_ values of ‘MEAN’, ‘SD’, and
‘N’. These indicate that these lines contain vectors of means,
standard deviations, and counts, respectively, for var01
through var08 in order.
The remaining 8 lines have a ROWTYPE_ of ‘CORR’ which indicates
that the values are correlation coefficients. Each of the lines
corresponds to a row in the correlation matrix: the first line is for
var01, the next line for var02, and so on. The input
only contains values for the lower triangle, including the diagonal,
since FORMAT=LOWER DIAGONAL is the default.
With ROWTYPE_, the CONTENTS subcommand is optional and
the CELLS subcommand may not be used.
MATRIX DATA
VARIABLES=ROWTYPE_ var01 TO var08.

CORR .17 .29 -.05 .20 .27 .20 .04 1.00
END DATA.
FORMAT=UPPER NODIAGONAL ¶This syntax produces the same matrix file as example 1, but it uses
FORMAT=UPPER NODIAGONAL to specify the upper triangle and omit
the diagonal. Because the matrix’s ROWTYPE_ is CORR,
PSPP automatically fills in the diagonal with 1.
MATRIX DATA
VARIABLES=ROWTYPE_ var01 TO var08
/FORMAT=UPPER NODIAGONAL.
BEGIN DATA.

CORR .27 .12 -.24
CORR -.20 -.38
CORR .04
END DATA.
N subcommand ¶This syntax uses the N subcommand in place of an N
vector. It produces the same matrix file as examples 1 and 2.
MATRIX DATA
VARIABLES=ROWTYPE_ var01 TO var08
/FORMAT=UPPER NODIAGONAL
/N 92.
BEGIN DATA.
MEAN 24.3 5.4 69.7 20.1 13.4 2.7 27.9 3.7

END DATA.
This syntax defines two matrices, using the variable ‘s1’ to
distinguish between them. Notice how the order of variables in the
input matches their order on VARIABLES. This example also
uses FORMAT=FULL.
MATRIX DATA
VARIABLES=s1 ROWTYPE_ var01 TO var04
/SPLIT=s1
/FORMAT=FULL.

This syntax defines a matrix file that includes a factor variable ‘f1’. The data includes mean, standard deviation, and count vectors for two values of the factor variable, plus a correlation matrix for pooled data.
MATRIX DATA

/FACTOR=f1.
