GDA Syntax - Keyword Dependent

DEPENDENT [=] Variable [ (Value List) ];t;

Example: DEPENDENT = IRISTYPE ("SETOSA" "VIRGINIC" "VERSICOL");
Required keyword; specify the dependent (or Y) variable, and, optionally, the code values (codes or text labels) that are used in the categorical dependent variable to denote the group (class) membership of each observation. If no code values are specified, or if instead of code values an asterisk (*) is placed inside the parentheses following the dependent variable, the program will use all values that are found in the datafile for the respective variable.
