===== End Commentary =====Please specify the desired method of data entry: 1) Survival times entered by groups from the terminal 2) Free field -- from terminal or ascii files? 2 ===== Begin Commentary ===== The user can input the data in two ways. The first option allowsthe user to be prompted for the data by groups. The second optionallows the data to be entered free field, i.e., spaces separatevariables. If the data is in a file (as is usual) choose option two. ===== End Commentary =====Please select one of the following options 1 (*) Variable names are V1 ... Vn 2 ( ) Variable names typed in from terminal 3 ( ) Variable names read from a file? 2 ===== Begin Commentary ===== The suggested default (option 1) is that the names of thevariables read will be called v1, v2, ..., vn. This saves the userthe bother of entering his names. However, she may want to givemnemonic names to the variables in which case options 2 or 3 should bechosen. Option 2 allows names to be entered interactively; option 3allows names to be written to a file which is read to find the names.Names consist of 1-8 alphanumeric characters and are not casesensitive (i.e., NaMe1 is the same as name1). Note that if the user specifies a set of names, the number ofnames determines the number of variables to be read. If the user doesnot specify the names, then he has the choice of entering the numberof variables to be read or of having it determined from the firstrecord of the data file which must contain all observations from acomplete case. ===== End Commentary =====Enter the names of the variables in the observations.You must enter the names in the order in which thevalues appear in the observations file.Enter a blank line after all names have been entered.? surv status group?Please select one of the following options. 1 ( ) Abort if number of values on a record doesn't match the number of variables 2 (*) Do not abort? 1 ===== Begin Commentary ===== Values of variables are separated by blanks in the SURVANprogram. The number of variables in a record is determined by thenumber of names entered, or by the number of values on the firstrecord, or by the number explicitly specified (see above). This option is useful in the case in which all values for onerecord fit on one line. If option 1 is chosen, SURVAN will abort withan error message if there are too few or too many variables on aparticular line. Too few or too many is usually an input error. Ifoption 1 is not chosen, the specified number of variables is readsequentially for each record ignoring input line boundaries. ===== End Commentary =====Enter the name of the file with the dataSpecify file name or * for terminal input:? sexample.datOpened file sexample.dat -- -- P(roceed) or R(etry file specification)?? pDo you want to specify a value to signify missing values? (y/n)(This value will be considered missing for each variable.)? n*** DATA ENTERED *** ===== Begin Commentary ===== SURVAN requests the name of the file containing the data,confirms that it was found and gives the user the option of proceedingor entering a different file name. A value may be entered to indicate a missing value. The data musthave this value as missing for all variables. That is, SURVAN doesnot allow SEX to have a missing value of -9 but AGE to have a missingvalue of -99. All missing values must be the same. ===== End Commentary =====Press Return / Enter to continue:?Enter option number: (1) Print data (2) Define new survival variable (3) Define event for logistic regression model (4) Save current status to a file (5) Set/review/change group, strata, and compulsory variables (6) Define new print level for regressions (7) Compute frequencies (8) Compute condescriptive statistics (9) Run Kaplan-Meier estimation (10) Run log rank test (11) Run Gehan Breslow test (12) Run proportional hazards model estimation (13) Run logistic regression model estimation (14) End program ===== Begin Commentary ===== This is the main menu of SURVAN.
