The OUTMEASURE= data set records the similarity measures between each INPUT and TARGET statement variable with respect to each time ID value. The form of the OUTMEASURE= data set depends on the SORTNAMES and ORDER= options. The OUTMEASURE= data set contains the variables specified in the BY statement in addition to the variables listed below.

For ORDER=INPUTTARGET and ORDER=TARGETINPUT, the OUTMEASURE= data set has the following form:

_INPUT_

input variable name

_TARGET_

target variable name

_TIMEID_

time ID values

_INPSEQ_

input sequence values

_TARSEQ_

target sequence values

_SIM_

similarity measures

The OUTMEASURE= data set is ordered by the variables _INPUT_, then _TARGET_, then _TIMEID_ when ORDER=INPUTTARGET. The OUTMEASURE= data set is ordered by the variables _TARGET_, then _INPUT_, then _TIMEID_ when ORDER=TARGETINPUT.

For ORDER=INPUT, the OUTMEASURE= data set has the following form:

_INPUT_

input variable name

_TIMEID_

time ID values

_INPSEQ_

input sequence values

target-names

similarity measures that are associated with each TARGET statement variable name

The OUTMEASURE= data set is ordered by the variables _INPUT_, then _TIMEID_.

For ORDER=TARGET, the OUTMEASURE= data set has the following form:

_TARGET_

target variable name

_TIMEID_

time ID values

_TARSEQ_

target sequence values

input-names

similarity measures that are associated with each INPUT statement variable name

The OUTMEASURE= data set is ordered by the variables _TARGET_, then _TIMEID_.
