Introduction
In addition to the graphical user interfaces, via a web-browser, all SOCR Analyses allow command-line shell execution on local systems.
General Usage
- Get the latest SOCR JAR files from the SOCR page (http://socr.ucla.edu/htmls/jars/).
- The command-line interface to SOCR Analyses generally uses EXAMPLE 1 from the list of example data files for the corresponding analysis.
- All Input files are ASCII (see examples within each of the specific analyses).
- a -h flag at the end of the command-line indicates that the first row in all ASCII input data files is a HEADER row (so it's not interpreted as data)
- Number of variables have to be indicated at the end (after -h flag). If no number of variables is included, 5 is set defaulted.
Chi-Square Contingency Table Usage
- Generic Setting:
java -cp [SOCRjar_location]/SOCR_core.jar:[SOCRjar_location]/SOCR_plugin.jar edu.ucla.stat.SOCR.analyses.command.ChiSquareContingencyTableCSV [data_location]/c.txt -h
- Example: Edit a new file (ChiSquareContingencyTableCSV.csh) using any editor and paste this inside (make sure the file has executable permissions). Some operating systems/platforms may require variants of this (C-shell) script.
#!/bin/csh
date
java -cp /ifs/ccb/CCB_SW_Tools/others/Statistics/SOCR_Statistics/bin/SOCR_core.jar:/ifs/ccb/CCB_SW_Tools/others/Statistics/SOCR_Statistics/bin/SOCR_plugin.jar edu.ucla.stat.SOCR.analyses.command.ChiSquareContingencyTableCSV /ifs/ccb/CCB_SW_Tools/others/Statistics/SOCR_Statistics/SOCR_CSV_test_Scripts_Data/c.txt -h

Example Input data files
One test datafile is included with the SOCR analyses command-line distribution (c.txt). The ASCII content of each of these is included below. Note that the first lines in these files are column headers. This requires the "-h" flag at the end of the command line execution so that these first lines are interpreted as column headers.
f.txt | ||||

Row-Index | Column1 | Column2 | ||
1 | 2 | |||
3 | 4 |
