ST 103-Statistical Applications I-2011/2012 Note 03: Code Data Values

The document provides examples of using the CODE command in Minitab to recode numeric values into other numeric or text values. It also demonstrates using the CODE command to recode values in one column into text codes ('A', 'B', 'C', 'D') based on ranges of values in another column. Additionally, it shows how to perform arithmetic operations using the LET command and Calculator in Minitab. Finally, it describes the Make Patterned Data command for filling columns with numeric, text, or date/time values that follow a pattern.

Code Data Values Numeric to Numeric Manip Code Numeric to Text Text to Text Text to Numeric Syntax CODE (K...K) to K ... (K...K) to K for C...C, put in C...C Eg: MTB > CODE (-2 -1)0 c1 c2 c4 c5 This would code the values -2 and -1 in the columns C1 and C2 in to 0 and put in columns C4 and C5.

C1 2 -1 -2 -1 3 5 2 Eg:

C2 1 2 -1 -2 -2 3 2

C3

C4 2 0 0 0 3 5 2

C5 1 2 0 0 0 3 2

Add these data into C7 column of your work sheet 78, 50, 100, 15, 30, 42, 33, 95, 28, 70, 85, 55, 63, 90, 83, 17 If the value in C7 between 100 and 75 If the value in C7 between 74 and 65 If the value in C7 between 64 and 30 If the value in C7 between 29 and 0 Code as A and put in C8 Code as B and put in C8 Code as C and put in C8 Code as D and put in C8

MTB > CODE (100:75)"A" (74:65)"B" (64:30)"C" (29:0)D C7 C8 Doing Arithmetic operations with menu commands Using the calculator we can do arithmetic operations, comparison operations, logical operations, functional operations and column operations. Calc Calculator variable or constant

Can select functions

Doing Arithmetic operations with Let The LET command make it easy to do very complicated calculations. LET uses following symbols + For add For subtract * For multiply / For divide ** For raise to the power After applying an operation if that results a single number answer, we can store that number as a constant. Eg.
MTB > DATA> DATA> DATA> DATA> MTB > READ C1 C2 8 1 6 3 4 4 END LET C3=10*(C1+C2)

MTB MTB MTB MTB MTB MTB MTB MTB

> > > > > > > >

LET C4=10*C1+C2 LET C5=C1/C2+1 LET K1=3 LET K2=18 LET K3=K1+K2+4 LET C6=K1*C1 LET C7=C1**2 PRINT C1-C7 K1-K3

Make Patterned Data


Provide an easy way to fill a column with numbers, text or date/time values that follow a pattern. Calc Make patterned data Simple Set of Numbers - fill a column with a pattern of equally spaced numbers. Arbitrary Set of Numbers - fill a column with a pattern of unequally spaced numbers Text Values - fill a column with a pattern of text values Simple Set of Date/Time Values - fill a column with a series of dates, times, or date/time values Arbitrary Set of Date/Time Values - fill a column with a pattern of dates, times, or date/time values
