PSPP 1.4.0-2 Tutorial Series (Episode 1): Opening Data Files

In this PSPP tutorial, I quickly show how to open a file in the data editor window. New tutorial series for a direct and loving copy to IBM's SPSS statistical program.
PSPP: www.gnu.org/so...
NOTE: This tutorial uses the current build of 1.4.0-2 on MacOS. Also part of this video was my experimental foray into double-wide canvas recording in OBS and learning how to crop and move a webcam layer in and around the final video product. I hope the facecam isn't too distracting!

Hi Alexander, can you make a video on analyzing Multiple response questions (checkbox) in PSPP? I don't know if it is not possible, or if I'm not finding the option to define the sets.

[@AlexanderSwan]

What kind of analysis are you referring to? I’m planning a completely new series if the new version plays nicely with MacOS, but that’s a summer task

[@BorisRistovski]

@@AlexanderSwan Hi, I'm referring to analyzing multiple-response questions (you can select more than one answer). Generating frequencies and cross-tabs from this type of question.

Anyone know how to covert to ASCII? I am getting weird unicode characters in my output and someone suggested ASCII conversion.

[@AlexanderSwan]

Is this when reading the output? Or downloading the output and looking at it in another app?

Now in Arabic as well 🙂
