specifies the last value of the time series.

MAXIMUM |MAX

specifies the maximum value in the time series.

MEDIAN |MED

specifies the median of the values in the time series.

MINIMUM |MIN

specifies the minimum value in the time series.

N

specifies the number of nonmissing observations.

NMISS

specifies the number of missing observations.

NOBS

specifies the number of observations.

STDDEV |STD

specifies the standard deviation of the values in the time series.

TOTAL

specifies the total sum of the values in the time series.

USS

specifies the uncorrected sum of squares of the values in the time series.

The default is TOTAL.

'setmiss'

specifies the missing value interpretation.

You can specify the following values within single quotation marks:

FIRST

specifies the accumulated first nonmissing value.

LAST

specifies the accumulated last nonmissing value.

MAXIMUM |MAX

specifies the accumulated maximum value.

MEDIAN |MED

specifies the accumulated median value.

MINIMUM |MIN

specifies the accumulated minimum value.

MISSING

specifies a missing value.

NEXT

specifies the next period’s accumulated nonmissing value. Missing values at the end of the accumulated series remain missing.

PREVIOUS |PREV

specifies the previous period’s accumulated nonmissing value. Missing values at the beginning of the accumulated series remain missing.

The default is MISSING.

'zeromiss'

specifies the zero value interpretation.

You can specify the following values within single quotation marks:
