Description

Dataset basic summary (descriptive) statistics.

Syntax

BOOL Data_sum( Dataset * pdsData, BasicStats * pbsStat, Dataset * pdsSumData = NULL )

Parameters

pdsData: [input] Pointer to input dataset
pbsStat: [output] Pointer to returned BasicStats structure (see OC_types.h)
pdsSumData: [output] Pointer to returned dataset containing cumulative sum

Return

Returns TRUE, a BasicStats structure (see OC_types.h), and if specified, a data set containing a cumulative sum of the input data set on success and returns FALSE on failure.

Examples

EX1

// This is a self contained sample program for the function Data_sum, 
// Its sample data is created at the beginning of the program. 
// To run the program, enter the following command in the Script window:
//   Data_sum_ex1
// This will return the result statistics like following, and put 
// the cummulative values to the second column:
//   Applying Data_sum on Data2_A succedded.
//     N = 8
//     Missing = 0
//     Total = 2.869720
//     Mean = 0.358715
//     SD = 0.169819
//     SSDM = 0.201870
//     Min = 0.097000 at #2
//     Max = 0.645290 at #7
