The Distribution Report
Figure 2.5 The Initial Distribution Report Window
The initial Distribution report contains a histogram and reports for each variable. Note the following:
• To replace a variable in a report, from the Columns panel of the associated data table, drag and drop the
variable into the axis of the histogram.
• To insert a new variable into a report, creating a new histogram, drag and drop the variable outside of an
existing histogram. The new variable can be placed before, between, or after the existing histograms.
Note: To remove a variable, select Remove from the red triangle menu.
• The red triangle menu next to Distributions contains options that affect all of the variables. See
“Distribution Platform Options” on page 41.
• The red triangle menu next to each variable contains options that affect only that variable. See “Options
for Categorical Variables” on page 42 or “Options for Continuous Variables” on page 44. If you hold
down the CTRL key and select a variable option, the option applies to all of the variables that have the
same modeling type.
• Histograms visually display your data. See “Histograms” on page 36.
