This menu is hierarchical. Each library lists the functions or other constructs it contains. The middle partition lists built-in libraries. At the bottom, are any libraries you have created or added. If you view and select a subitem when editing a definition, it pastes it into the definition.
Menu item Description Edit Definition Opens the appropriate view for editing the definition of the selected variable. If the variable is defined as a distribution or sequence, the
Object Finder opens. If it is defined as a table or probability table, its
edit table window opens. Otherwise, an Object window or Attribute
panel opens, depending on the Edit attributes setting in the Preferences dialog (page 54).
Edit Time Opens the Object window for the Time system variable. See “The Time index” on page 322.
Paste Identifier Opens the Object Finder dialog for examining functions and variable identifiers, entering function parameters, and pasting them into
definitions. See “Object Finder dialog” on page 112.
Show Invalid Variables
Displays a window listing all variables with invalid or missing definitions. See “Invalid variables” on page 355.
Math See “Math functions” on page 145. Array See Chapter 11, “Arrays and Indexes,” and Chapter 12, “More Array Functions.”
Distribution See Chapter 15, “Probability Distributions.” Special Displays a list of unusual or less commonly used functions in the Special library.
Statistical See “Statistical functions” on page 296. Operators Arithmetic, comparison, logical, and conditional operators. See “Operators” on page 142.
System Variables
System Variables submenu (see below). Matrix See “Matrix functions” on page 224. Text Functions See “Converting number to text” on page 147. Financial See “Financial functions” on page 239. Advanced Math See “Converting number to text” on page 147. Database Appears only in Analytica Enterprise. See “Database functions” on page 410.
Optimizer Appears only if you have the Optimizer activated. See Optimizer Guide for more.
your libraries Lists the names of any libraries that you have defined or added to the model, each with a submenu that lists the functions contained in the
library. See Chapter 20, “Building Functions and Libraries.”
