This chapter shows you how to perform a parametric analysis on a model.
A potent source of insight into a model is examining the behavior of its outputs as you systematically vary one or more of its inputs. This technique is called model behavior analysis. Each input that you vary systematically is called a parameter, and so this technique is also known as para-metric analysis. Analytica makes it simple to analyze model behavior in this way. All you have to do is to assign a list of alternative values to selected input parameter. When you view the result of any output, Analytica computes and displays a table or graph showing how the output values vary for all combinations of the input values.
This chapter describes how to select variables as parameters, how to specify alternative values for the parameters, and how to examine the results.
