How can I use my Quick MML programs from STATISTICA version 4.5 in STATISTICA BASIC?
Because Quick MML operates only in Sequential mode, and STATISTICA BASIC can run in either Randomaccess (default) or Sequential mode (see the previous topic), you need to specify the mode (enter the word “Sequential”) in the first line of your Quick MML program. How to set (or leave unchanged) default values of function parameters: Many functions in STATISTICA BASIC have multiple parameters; to simplify programming, STATISTICA BASIC allows you to ignore those parameters which are not absolutely necessary. You can do this in one of two ways: (1) Instead of specifying the value of a parameter, place a ? before any word in place of the parameter (for text parameters, a $ must be used at the end of the word). Note that if you insert the function from the Function Wizard dialog, this is how the parameter keywords will appear until you change them to the desired values. (These can even be abbreviated as ? for numeric parameters or ?$ for text parameters.) For example, the following program w
