Separate tests for samples given in the edit field or taken from data
files can be performed by a COMPARE operation.
For example, to compare two small samples by using standard tests, we
may activate COMPARE in the following scheme:
DATA CORN1: 83 91 94 89 89 96 91 92 90 END
DATA CORN2: 91 90 81 83 84 83 88 91 89 84 END
COMPARE CORN1,CORN2
When the data set consists of several variables, the selected variable
is given in the form <name_of_data>(<variable>). For example, a paired
comparison may be performed as:
DATA TEST:(X,Y) 1.2,1.5 3.2,5 3.9,5 2.8,3.7 END
COMPARE TEST(X),TEST(Y) / TEST=Paired
