Step 4 — Discretization and Aggregation

Context

  • Step 4 — Discretization and Aggregation requires you to make several more important choices before concluding the import process.
  • Unlike the previous steps, which each consisted of a single screen, Step 4 provides one screen per variable type across six screens.

Overview of Screens

  • As you go from Step 3 to Step 4, the variable that you last selected in Step 3 remains highlighted.
  • Depending on the variable type, Step 4 starts with one of six possible screens, one for each variable type. Click on the thumbnails in the following table for a preview.
  • Note that for Row Identifier and Unused variables, no actions are available. Except for the Data panel, the corresponding screens are blank.
