CORRESP <data>,L performs a correspondence analysis on a table (of frequencies) saved as a Survo data set. The rows are the active observations (chosen by IND, CASES, and SELECT specifications) and the columns are the variables activated by `A's. The extent of results is determined by activating more variables by other mask characters. For example, the row coordinates are saved in variables activated by `C's. The corresponding column coordinates are saved in a matrix file CR_COORD.M . In summary, the results are selected as follows: In columnwise results: Mask Task Matrix file for C Row coordinates CR_COORD.M Column coordinates S Supplementary columns CR_SUPPC.M Column coordinates u U from SVD CR_V.M V from SVD CR_EIGEN.M D^2 from SVD a Absolute contributions CR_CONTR.M for columnwise contributions s Squared correlations CR_CORR2.M for columnwise squared corr.s r Residuals of the original table m Mass (one variable) CR_MDIST.M 1st column d Chi^2 distance CR_MDIST.M 2nd column Above, SVD stands for the singular value decomposition A=UDV' of matrix A=Em*F*En where F is the original m x n matrix, Em is a diagonal matrix with the inverse square roots of the row sums as diagonal elements and En is similarly related to the column sums. Supplementary cases (rows) are indicated by a specification SUPPL_CASES=<variable>,<l.limit>,<u.limit> /CRPLOT <data>,<C1>,<C2>,<C_coord>,<S_coord> / K.Vehkalahti creates a correspondence plot of dimensions <C1> and <C2> so that the information from <data> and two matrices are presented in the same coordinate system.
