When JMP has to put categorical values in order, such as in table rows or a graph axis, it will use alphabetical order if there is no order defined for the column. JMP knows about the order of a few common categorical values, such as month names and Likert scale
My name is Jennifer Baulier, and I am a summer student at JMP. I attend college at WPI (Worcester Polytechnic Institute), and applied for my internship at SAS through the R3 program. I am going into my sophomore year and am studying both computer science and video game development. I

A new book by Bradley Jones, principal research fellow, and Peter Goos is out this week: Optimal Design of Experiments: A Case Study Approach. “Design of experiments is a powerful tool for understanding systems and processes….Our view is that optimal design of experiments is an appropriate tool in virtually any
SAS® Structural Equation Modeling for JMP® is a new application that enables researchers to use SAS and JMP to draw models by using an interface that is built on the SAS/STAT® CALIS procedure. To create models in SAS Structural Equation Modeling for JMP, you simply drag variables into the diagram
With all the fanfare in New York for Derek Jeter reaching the 3,000-hit mark, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to gather some data to put this rare event in perspective. First off, let me qualify my interest and passion around this topic. I was born and raised in Pelham, New
Wayne Levin of Predictum posted a message on the JMP User group on Facebook looking for a couple of panelists to present at an advanced JMP Scripting Language session at Discovery Summit. I thought readers of the JMP Blog might like to see Wayne's note as well: Attention, JSL scripters:
When building models to predict a binary outcome variable, such as respond or not respond, the proportion in the desired category (respond) may be low. For example, in direct mail campaigns the response rate is often 1% or lower. In such cases, a predictive model is likely to learn how
