SDELQU= delete structure interactively = No

Up  Previous  Next

This is better performed with IREFER= and IVALUE=. SDELQU= is not supported in this version of Winsteps.

 

If your system is interactive, categories to be deleted can be entered interactively by setting SDELQU=Y before the &END line. If you specify this, you will be asked if you want to delete any category structure.

 

If you respond "yes", it will ask if you want to read these deleted categories from a file; if you answer "yes" it will ask for the file name and process that file in the same manner as if SDFILE= had been specified.

 

If you answer "no", you will be asked to enter

 

a) the sequence number of each item (representing a grouping, as described under SDFILE=). This question is omitted if all items are in one grouping.

 

b) the score value of one category to be deleted from that item and its grouping.

Enter these deletions one at a time. When you are finished, enter a zero.
