TYPE=MIXED Data Sets

A TYPE=MIXED data set contains coefficients of either a linear or a quadratic function, or both if there are BY groups. PROC DISCRIM produces a TYPE=MIXED data set when you specify METHOD=NORMAL (the default method), POOL=TEST, and an OUTSTAT= data set. See ChapterĀ 35: The DISCRIM Procedure, for details.
