public class SVarFact
extends SVar

Statistical Variable

IMPORTANT NOTES:

 NOTE: do NOT remove any elements from SVar !! Any Vector methods that modify contents
       except for "add" are NOT safe (for categorized vars) as they DON'T update categories!!

 The "is number" property is set accoding to the first added (non-null) element - thus you should NOT mix
 numeric and non-numeric objects. It is safe to insert numbers in non-numeric value, but NOT
 vice-versa as for numeric variables the detection of min/max casts any object to Number.

Field Detail

cont

public int[] cont

cats

public java.lang.String[] cats

muteNotify

public boolean muteNotify
Constructor Detail

SVarFact

public SVarFact(java.lang.String name,
                int len)

SVarFact

public SVarFact(java.lang.String Name,
                int[] ids,
                java.lang.String[] cnames)
construct new variable and add first element

Parameters:
Name - variable name
iscat - true if categorial variable
first - first element to be added - see add(java.lang.Object) for details. If null is passed then no element is added. The usage of this constructor is discouraged/deprecated because first entry cannot contain a missing value thus leading to a loss of generality.
Method Detail

isLastMissing

public boolean isLastMissing()
return true if missings have their own category (the last one)


replaceAll

public boolean replaceAll(int[] ids,
                          java.lang.String[] cnames)

setAllEmpty

public void setAllEmpty(int size)
Description copied from class: SVar
we want to be able to make an empty SVar with the specified size and null content (added 28.12.03 MH). remove abstract and define a fallback using replace/add/remove in case the subclass doesn't provide its optimized version (SU 19.1.04)
