In an earlier post, I mentioned a new JMP add-in that can be used to split data prior to predictive modeling. This post deals with how this works and so necessarily touches on the topic of JMP Scripting Language, or JSL for short. This is a big topic, so here
When undertaking a new plumbing project, I always try to follow my two rules of plumbing. Rule One: Never start a plumbing project without beer in the fridge; you’ll get frustrated and need to take a break to calm down, and a beer works great for that. Rule Two: Never
Unfortunately, a part of the software development process is giving up features that we hoped would be included in the software. JMP 9 demonstrates that, sometimes, you get an even better feature in return. For a few releases now, some of you have asked for a tool to let you
When I looked at the list of books that came with JMP 9, I noticed interesting changes, which the JMP documentation team (Susan Conaghan, Melanie Drake, Jonathan Gatlin and Sheila Loring) explained to me. The changes are part of their ongoing project to upgrade JMP documentation. Here's how you can
This is the first in a series of Q&As with the JMP development team as we approach the release of JMP 9 on Oct. 12. Unless you go to events such as the Discovery Summit where attendees get to meet JMP developers in person, you probably know little about the
This week we celebrate the 35th anniversary of SAS user group meetings with SGF 2010 (formerly known as SUGI). SAS has exhibited extraordinary growth and success since that first meeting of five users in 1975. Over this time span, we have also seen major advancements in the field of modern
Using the JMP Scripting Language (JSL), you can program JMP to repeat analyses, write custom programs to manipulate data, and extend JMP's graphical and analytical capabilities. Wendy Murphrey and Rosemary Lucas of SAS are the authors of a new book about JSL called Jump Into JMP Scripting. I asked Wendy
This blog post was written by a blogger who is no longer at SAS Business users have been flocking to JMP for its data visualization and analytical capabilities. You can create a simple dashboard with a minimal amount of scripting. The functions that I will use are: New Window(), H
In a recent live Webcast for faculty and students, I showed teaching modules developed by Amy Froelich (Iowa State University) and Bill Duckworth (Creighton University) that were programmed by Wayne Levin and Brian McFarlane (Predictum Inc.). Here I show how to invoke these modules (which are encrypted JMP scripts) or
In "How many words for red?" (and part 2), blogger Sean Roberts shows some interesting visuals of named colors. He's trying to correlate the number of names of a hue with the different perceptual space of each hue from a psychology angle. I'm always interested when the raw data for
