MAGIC?

Administrator

I've been looking over Brian Dates' Bootstrapping code and came across a
truly marvelous GEM which can only be described as Magical.

Here is a self contained instance.

MATRIX.
COMPUTE Data={1,4,7, 2,3,5, 6,8,9, 0,2,1, 3,4,5, 8,7,5, 6,3,1}.
COMPUTE Sort=Data.
COMPUTE Sort(GRADE(Data))=Data.
PRINT Sort.
END MATRIX.

Run MATRIX procedure:

SORT
0 1 1 1 2 2 3 3 3 4 4 5 5 5 6 6 7 7 8 8 9

------ END MATRIX -----

I have generalized this to sort multiple columns as follows.

MATRIX.
COMPUTE Data={1,4,7; 2,3,5; 6,8,9; 0,2,1; 3,4,5; 8,7,5; 6,3,1}.
PRINT Data.
COMPUTE Sorted=Data.
LOOP #=1 TO NCOL(Data).
COMPUTE Temp=Data(:,#).
COMPUTE Temp(GRADE(Data(:,#)))=Data(:,#).
COMPUTE Sorted(:,#)=Temp.
END LOOP.
PRINT Sorted.
END MATRIX.

DATA
1 4 7
2 3 5
6 8 9
0 2 1
3 4 5
8 7 5
6 3 1

SORTED
0 2 1
1 3 1
2 3 5
3 4 5
6 4 5
6 7 7
8 8 9

I really wonder WTF is going on under the hood ;-))
I always thought one had to manually reorder the data using the "GRADE"s as
Pointers.... WRONG!
Somebody truly had their shit together!

Re: MAGIC?

David,

This is modeled after some work done by Kirill, so he gets the credit. He also has a macro, which I changed somewhat, that sorts multiple columns keeping the data intact across columns and provides the frequency of each of the combinations of values across columns. I was going to adapt it for use in the Bayesian bootstrap of correlations, making sure that it kept value pairs together, but as it turned out, I didn't need it, but I did file it away for possible future use. His title is for the multicolumn sorting is "INTERACTION DUMMY VARIABLES AND MULTI-WAY FREQUENCY AGGREGATION" .

In fact we don't even need to make a copy.

MATRIX.
COMPUTE B={5,4,3,2}.
COMPUTE B=B(GRADE(B)).
PRINT B.
END MATRIX.

Run MATRIX procedure:

It's really no different from B[1,2,3,4].

In reply to this post by David Marso

And to think that's where I teach. I guess my question about whether to pursue using SPSS in light of the fact that the department in which I teach has made a move to Excel is answered. SPSS it is! That's where the 'magic' lies.

Obsfuscate much?

The "magic" mystery has been solved.
Where in the FM is this documented.
I sense some possibilities! WTF were they smoking at U of M back in the day?
I want some.

That might be valid in Python but this is SPSS MATRIX language.
Undocumented feature?
Square brackets aren't used either.
Just wondering if this is elaborated in the FM?

Excel is suitable for doing relatively simple things with relatively simple,
relatively small, well structured data.
Subseptible to unfortunate fatfingering of random data cells forever
untraceable, forever wrong, unknowable.
"WTF is this?" answerable only by anguished tracking of referenced GIGO
across multiple layers of confusion and nested formulae from Satan's Anus. I
LOVE Excel for diddling RSRSWSD. But for doing statistics? What? Do you
think I'm batshit crazy? Don't answer that.
Meanwhile, in an academic setting, SPSS can be procured by a student for
almost nothing. The decision is a no brainer.
