Scripting Capabilities

Some advanced data management tasks require the use of a programming language. The JMP Scripting Language (JSL) is a powerful statistical, data-handling language unto itself. It has the expected language capabilities such as:
  • conditional statements;
  • looping;
  • table manipulation
to name a few. In addition, it has many built-in probability distributions, matrix operations, and statistical methods that make it especially useful for wrangling data in preparation for statistical analysis.
I don’t discuss the scripting language in this book, but it is referred to as needed.
