outputTables	names	lists the names of results tables to save as CAS tables on the server.

Parameter Descriptions

applyRowOrder=TRUE | FALSE

specifies that you wish that the action uses a prespecified row ordering. This requires using the orderby and groupby parameters on a preliminary table.partition action call.

Alias	reproducibleRowOrder
Default	FALSE

attributes={{casinvardesc-1} <, {casinvardesc-2}, ...>}

changes the attributes of variables used in this action. Currently, attributes specified on the inputs and nominals parameter are ignored.

* copyVars="ALL" | "ALL_NUMERIC" | {"variable-name-1" <, "variable-name-2", ...>}

specifies a list of one or more variables to be copied from the input table to the output table. You can alternatively specify the value ALL, ALL_MODEL, or ALL_NUMERIC, which respectively copies all variables, all variables used in the modeling, or all numeric variables from the input table to the output table.

whereTable={groupbytable}

specifies an input table that contains rows to use as a WHERE filter. If the vars parameter is not specified, then all the variable names that are common to the input table and the filtering table are used to find matching rows. If the where parameter for the input table and this parameter are specified, then this filtering table is applied first.

The groupbytable value can be one or more of the following:

casLib="string"

specifies the caslib for the filter table. By default, the active caslib is used.

For more information about specifying the attributes parameter, see the common casinvardesc parameter (Appendix A: Common Parameters).

Alias	attribute

diagnostics={_diagnostics}

"eyecatcher":"string"

specifies a quoted string that will be prefixed to any messages that are associated with this action invocation.

display={displayTables}

specifies a list of results tables to send to the client for display.

For more information about specifying the display parameter, see the common displayTables parameter (Appendix A: Common Parameters).

k=64-bit-integer

specifies the number k for k-fold partitioning.

output={KFOLDOutputStatement}

creates a table on the server that contains the k-fold partitioning output.

The KFOLDOutputStatement value can be one or more of the following:

* "casOut":{casouttable}

outputTables={outputTables}

lists the names of results tables to save as CAS tables on the server.

For more information about specifying the outputTables parameter, see the common outputTables parameter (Appendix A: Common Parameters).

Alias	displayOut

seed=64-bit-integer

specifies an integer to use to start the pseudorandom number generator.

Default	0
Maximum value	2147483647

specifies the input data table.

Long form	table={"name":"table-name"}
Shortcut form	table="table-name"

The castable value can be one or more of the following:

"caslib":"string"

specifies the caslib for the input table that you want to use with the action. By default, the active caslib is used. Specify a value only if you need to access a table from a different caslib.

"computedOnDemand":True | False

when set to True, creates the computed variables when the table is loaded instead of when the action begins.

Alias	compOnDemand
Default	False

"computedVars":[{casinvardesc-1} <, {casinvardesc-2}, ...>]

Alias	compVars

The casinvardesc value can be one or more of the following:

"format":"string"

specifies the format to apply to the variable.

"formattedLength":integer

specifies the length of the format field plus the length of the format precision.

"label":"string"

specifies the descriptive label for the variable.

* "name":"variable-name"

specifies the name for the variable.

"nfd":integer

specifies the length of the format precision.

"nfl":integer

specifies the length of the format field.

"computedVarsProgram":"string"

specifies an expression for each computed variable that you include in the computedVars parameter.

Alias	compPgm

"dataSourceOptions":{"key-1":{any-list-or-data-type-1} <, "key-2":{any-list-or-data-type-2}, ...>}

specifies data source options.

Aliases	options
Aliases	dataSource

"groupBy":[{casinvardesc-1} <, {casinvardesc-2}, ...>]

specifies the names of the variables to use for grouping results.

The casinvardesc value can be one or more of the following:

"format":"string"

specifies the format to apply to the variable.

"formattedLength":integer

specifies the length of the format field plus the length of the format precision.

"label":"string"

specifies the descriptive label for the variable.

* "name":"variable-name"

specifies the name for the variable.

"nfd":integer

specifies the length of the format precision.

"nfl":integer

specifies the length of the format field.

"groupByMode":"NOSORT" | "REDISTRIBUTE"

specifies how to create groups.

Default	NOSORT

NOSORT

groups the data without sorting on each machine, and then groups the data again on the controller.

REDISTRIBUTE

transfers rows between nodes to guarantee ordering within groups. This method is slower.

"importOptions":{"fileType":"ANY" | "AUDIO" | "AUTO" | "BASESAS" | "CSV" | "DOCUMENT" | "DTA" | "ESP" | "EXCEL" | "FMT" | "HDAT" | "IMAGE" | "JMP" | "LASR" | "PARQUET" | "SPSS" | "VIDEO" | "XLS", fileType-specific-parameters}

specifies the settings for reading a table from a data source.

Alias	import_

For more information about specifying the importOptions parameter, see the common importOptions parameter (Appendix A: Common Parameters).

* "name":"table-name"

specifies the name of the input table.

"orderBy":[{casinvardesc-1} <, {casinvardesc-2}, ...>]

The casinvardesc value can be one or more of the following:

"format":"string"

specifies the format to apply to the variable.

"formattedLength":integer

specifies the length of the format field plus the length of the format precision.

"label":"string"

specifies the descriptive label for the variable.

* "name":"variable-name"

specifies the name for the variable.

"nfd":integer

specifies the length of the format precision.

"nfl":integer

specifies the length of the format field.

"singlePass":True | False

when set to True, does not create a transient table on the server. Setting this parameter to True can be efficient, but the data might not have stable ordering upon repeated runs.

Default	False

"where":"where-expression"

specifies an expression for subsetting the input data.

"whereTable":{groupbytable}

The groupbytable value can be one or more of the following:

"casLib":"string"

specifies the caslib for the filter table. By default, the active caslib is used.

"dataSourceOptions":{adls_noreq-parameters | bigquery-parameters | cas_noreq-parameters | clouddex-parameters | db2-parameters | dnfs-parameters | esp-parameters | fedsvr-parameters | gcs_noreq-parameters | hadoop-parameters | hana-parameters | impala-parameters | informix-parameters | jdbc-parameters | mongodb-parameters | mysql-parameters | odbc-parameters | oracle-parameters | path-parameters | postgres-parameters | redshift-parameters | s3-parameters | sapiq-parameters | sforce-parameters | singlestore_standard-parameters | snowflake-parameters | spark-parameters | spde-parameters | sqlserver-parameters | ss_noreq-parameters | teradata-parameters | vertica-parameters | yellowbrick-parameters}

specifies data source options.

specifies the variable names to use from the filter table.

The casinvardesc value can be one or more of the following:

"format":"string"

specifies the format to apply to the variable.

"formattedLength":integer

specifies the length of the format field plus the length of the format precision.

"label":"string"
