The Data Table

Examining Data

This section describes how to do the following:

  • find observations that satisfy certain conditions
  • examine selected observations
  • copy selected observations into a separate data set

In analyzing data, you might want to find observations that satisfy certain conditions. For example, you might want to select all sales to a particular company. Or you might want to select all patients with high blood pressure.

After you have found the observations, you can examine the observations or copy them to a new data set.
