What is JMP?

JMP is software for interactive statistical graphics. It uses an extraordinary

graphical interface to display and analyze data. Features are as follows :
> A spreadsheet for viewing, editing, entering, and manipulating data;
> A broad range of graphical and statistical methods for data analysis;
> An extensive design of experiments module;
> Options to select and display subsets of the data;
> Data management tools for sorting and combining tables;
> A calculator for each table column to compute values;
> A facility for grouping data and computing summary statistics;
> Special plots, charts, and communication capability for quality improvement
techniques;
> Tools for moving analysis results between applications and for printing;
> A scripting language for saving frequently used routines.
 JMP Starter: Overview

When the JMP application opens, you see the JMP Starter, providing a good way to get
started if you haven’t used JMP before. It gives alternative access to most commands
found on the main menu or on toolbars.

You can close the JMP Starter if you want; it is not required for running JMP. This section
gives an overview of the JMP Starter and briefly describes its tabbed pages and the items
or commands on them.

To open and close the JMP Starter, select View > JMP Starter
JMP Starter: File Page

The JMP Starter first appears with the File page showing. Most commands on the File page
correspond to File menu commands on the main menu bar.

The commands on the File page open JMP data tables or other kinds of JMP windows, which is
often what you need to do first.
JMP Starter: The Basic Page

The Basic page addresses univariate

and bivariate analyses.

You see how to examine variables one
at a time by looking at distributions
and comparing them to known
distributions.

When there are two variables, a single
response (y) and a single factor (x),
JMP performs the appropriate
bivariate analysis according to whether
the variables are continuous or
categorical.

These analyses can be run by clicking
their buttons on the Basic page or by
selecting the Analyze Menu
JMP Starter: The Model Page

The Model page gives choices for fitting all types of models—from simple regression and
analysis of variance to complex nonlinear fits.
JMP Starter: The Multivariate Page

The Multivariate page introduces ways to look at continuous variables when they are
considered as responses only; there are no factor or independent variables. Multivariate
exploration with correlations and cluster analysis lets you look at many variables at the same
time.
JMP Starter: The Survival Page

Survival data contain duration times until the occurrence of a specific event and are
sometimes referred to as event-time response data. The event can be failure, such as the
failure of an engine or death of a patient.
JMP Starter: The Graph Page

The Graph page corresponds with commands in the main menu that produce plots and charts
of summarized data, a three-dimensional spinning plot, contour, and ternary plots.
JMP Starter: The Surface Page

The Surface page corresponds with commands in the main menu that produce multi-dimensional
graphs, such as profilers and surface plots.
JMP Starter: The QC Page

The QC page accesses the commands on the Graph menu that are used in statistical quality
control, except for the Capability button, which accesses the Distribution command found
on the Analyze menu.
JMP Starter: The DOE Page

The DOE page corresponds to the commands in the DOE main menu. These commands
construct classical and custom experimental designs and save them in a JMP table. Selecting a
design type presents an environment for describing the factors, responses and other
specifications needed to make a design of that type.
JMP Starter: The Tables Page

The Tables page corresponds to the commands in the Tables main menu.
Data File Import
Importing Data from Other Applications

There are four ways to import data into JMP from other
applications:
> Copy and paste from Excel.
> Open a file created by another software program that JMP recognizes.
> Text import.
> Connect to a database.
File Menu > Open Data Table: Opening Existing JMP Files

If you want to import a file that is a JMP data table (.jmp), script (.jsl), or journal (.jrn):

recognizes.
> JMP recognizes a variety of file types, including Excel (.xls), SAS (.sd2,
sd5, sas7bdat), and MS Access (.mbd).
Importing Data from Other Applications

Text Import
> Import the text file in JMP
Specifying Data Types and Modeling Types

The data type of a column determines

how its values are formatted in the data
grid, how they are stored internally,
and whether they can be used in
calculations. The three data types are:
> Numeric Columns only contain numbers,
with or without a decimal point.
> Character Columns contain any
characters, including numbers. In
character columns, numbers are seen as
characters only and are treated as
discrete values instead of continuous
values.
> Row State Columns contain row state
information—information that tells you
if the rows are excluded, hidden,
labeled, colored, or marked.
Data Exploration and Manipulation
 Element of a JMP Data Table

Table panel
The table panel contains
the data table name, a
small red triangle icon,
and a list of any table
properties/scripts

Columns panel
The columns panel
contains a list of columns
found in the data table,
each column’s modeling
type, and any attributes
assigned to the columns.

Rows panel
The rows panel shows
the number of total rows,
selected (or highlighted)
rows, excluded rows,
hidden rows, and labelled
rows.
 Selecting Row and Columns

Selecting Excluded, Hidden, or Labeled Rows

Sometimes you need to automatically highlight, or select, certain types of rows so

you can see or manipulate them among the many rows of a data table. To select
rows that have been marked as excluded, hidden, or labeled:
Selecting Cells with Specific Values
If you are looking for a specific value in a data table, there are several ways to quickly select it: (1) Using Rows
> Row Selection > Select Matching Cells

Highlight the cells that contain

the value(s) you want to locate.

To find all matching cells within

the active data table, select
Rows > Row Selection > Select
Matching Cells.
 Selecting Cells with Specific Values
If you are looking for a specific value in a data table, there are several ways to quickly select it: (1) Using Rows
> Row Selection > Select Where

If you currently have rows selected in the data table, click an option under
Currently Selected Rows to tell JMP how to handle that current selection:

• Clear Current Selection Removes the highlight from currently-

selected rows and selects all rows that contain the specified value.
• Extend Current Selection Keeps the currently-selected rows selected
and also selects the rows in which the specified value has been found.
• Select From Current Selection Selects the rows in the currently-
selected array that contain the specified values.
Subset, Concatenate, Join, and More

You can perform a wide variety of data management tasks on JMP data:
> Create a new data table from a subset of rows and columns from another data
table
> Sort by any number of columns
> Stack multiple columns into a single column
> Split a column into two columns
> Transpose rows and columns
> Concatenate multiple tables end to end
> Join two tables side by side
> Update columns in a table with values from another table
Creating a Subset Table
You can produce a new data table that is a subset of all rows and columns, only highlighted rows
and columns, or randomly-selected rows from the active data table.
To create a subset: Select Tables > Subset.
Sorting Data Tables
You can sort a JMP data table by columns in either ascending or descending order. By default,
columns sort in ascending order. You can either create a new table that contains the sorted
values, or you can replace the original table with the sorted table.
To sort a data table: Select Tables > Sort.

Ascending
Descending
Stacking Columns
You can rearrange your data table by stacking two or more columns into a single new column,
preserving the values from the other columns. Or, you can stack a set of columns into multiple
groups.
To stack column/s: Select Tables > Stack.
Splitting Columns
You can create a new data table from the active table by dividing one column into several new
columns. You can divide one column into several columns according to the values of one or more
variables.
To split column: Select Tables > Split.

Split Label Col

Split Columns
Transposing Rows and Columns
You can create a new JMP table that is a transposed version of the active data table. The columns
of the active table are the rows of the new table, and its rows are the new table’s columns.
To transpose rows and columns : Select Tables > transpose.
Attaching Tables (Concatenating)
When you concatenate tables in JMP, you append them so one column in the new table is
created for each column name in the original tables.

Joining Tables
You can combine two data tables into one new table by selecting Tables > Join.
Tables can be joined in three different ways:
1. By combining them according to row number
2. In a Cartesian fashion, where you form a new table consisting of all the pairs from two
original tables
3. By matching the values in one or more columns that exist in both data tables

The Summarize and Tabulate Commands

You can perform a wide variety of data management tasks on

JMP data:
> Create a table that contains columns of summary statistics
> Tabulate data so it is displayed in a tabular format
Summarizing Columns
The Tables > Summary command creates a summary table, which is a table that contains columns
of summary statistics from another data table, called the source table.

Definition
> A probability plot is constructed in a
way that the points will fall in a straight
line if they fit the distribution.
> This is a useful technique since the
human eye is better at assessing if
something is straight or not.
> The vertical axis represents estimated
cumulative probability.

Purpose
> Determine if a data set fits the Normal
distribution. Unlike Histogram,
probability plots can provide a more
decisive approach.

So, how straight should the line be?

Just as histograms are never perfectly smooth, the line will never
be perfectly straight even if the data is Normal. SAS-JMP places
95% CI limits on the diagram, and if all the points fall within the
lines, you can assume the data is Normally distributed.
