Syntax

TRIALS vname

Arguments and Subcommands

vname

The variable which contains the number of trials for each record.

Remarks

By default, it is assumed that each record in the input file represents a single trial (Bernoulli trials). Thus, the number of trials variable need not be specified before using GMBO to fit models. The BSF headers in BSF files created by GMBO contain information about the number of trials variable name, if any, used at the time the BSF file was written.

Example

To indicate that the n variable contains the number of trials:

TRIALS n
