Group Properties

The Group Properties tab is used to define the input vectors and the groups.

Inputs

In this section the inputs vectors are defined. The number of input vectors are defined by the number of rows in the parameter matrix.

This parameter tab is based on the parameter matrix concept. Use the Add button to add a new row and the remove button to remove a selected row. The columns of the matrix are described below.

Name

This is the name of the input vector port.

Type

This is the type of the input vector port. The alternatives are:

  • Double. The elements of the input vector are numeric.
  • String. The elements of the input vectors are strings.

Groups

This section is used to define the groups into which to sort the elements of the input vectors. The number of groups are defined by the number of rows in the parameter matrix.

This parameter tab is based on the parameter matrix concept. Use the Add button to add a new row and the remove button to remove a selected row. The columns of the matrix are described below.

Group Name

This is the name of the group. This name will be part of the name of the corresponding grouped output vector ports.

Group Value

This is the key value for the group. The values of the group vector elements will be matched against this value to determine which group the corresponding elements of the input vectors belong to.
