Extended data description

!SUMMARY

!SUMMARY causes ASReml to report a general description of the distribution of the data variables and factors and simple correlations among the variables for those records included in the analysis. This summary will ignore data records for which the variable being analysed is missing unless a multivariate analysis is requested or missing values are being estimated. The information is written to the .ass file.

Following is the wwt.ass file with some comments

tag was treated as a variable: we see a histogram of its values.
 ------> sire has      92 levels
 Distribution of frequencies of cell counts
       1 level(s) with       1 observations   92
       1 level(s) with       2 observations   62

       1 level(s) with     226 observations   65
       1 level(s) with     274 observations   40
    62 counts occurred     1 times
    12 counts occurred     2 times
sire was a large factor: we get some idea of the unbalance associated with it, identifying the particular sires with low numbers of observations. 62 of the 92 sires have counts unique to themselves; 6 pairs (listed) share their counts; 2 triplets (listed) share their counts.
