Sets the method used to exclude missing values in x from the computations.

Namespace: Imsl.Stat
Assembly: ImslCS (in ImslCS.dll) Version: 6.5.0.0

Syntax

C#
public int MissingValueMethod { get; set; }
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Property MissingValueMethod As Integer
Visual C++
public:
property int MissingValueMethod {
	int get ();
	void set (int value);
}

Field Value

An int scalar indicating the method to use.

Remarks

The methods are as follows:
MissingValueMethodAction
0The exclusion is listwise, default. (The entire row of x is excluded if any of the values of the row is equal to the missing value code.)
1Raw crossproducts are computed from all valid pairs and means, and variances are computed from all valid data on the individual variables. Corrected crossproducts, covariances, and correlations are computed using these quantities.
2Raw crossproducts, means, and variances are computed as in the case of MissingValueMethod = 1. However, corrected crossproducts and covariances are computed only from the valid pairs of data. Correlations are computed using these covariances and the variances from all valid data.
3Raw crossproducts, means, variances, and covariances are computed as in the case of MissingValueMethod = 2. Correlations are computed using these covariances, but the variances used are computed from the valid pairs of data.

Double.NaN is interpreted as the missing value code.
