Hi, my name is Åke Öhrlund .
I work at Galderma in Uppsala in Sweden.
I've been using JMP for many, many years,
almost my whole working life so far, but apparently I'm still learning.
That's what I want to share today.
One of the things I've come to realize more late is I've spent too much time
working on data, preparing it for getting into JMP in Excel; c utting and pasting.
I want to show you an example how you can do that much faster in JMP.
I got this data set from a colleague of mine.
It was a Tensile testing data.
It was 92 runs, each one 3900 rows of data.
It was layout like this with four columns for each run,
so 444, 92 times.
On row number three there was a sample name crammed in
and then the third 900 rows of data.
I couldn't pick it directly into JMP,
so she said, "You want me to cut and paste
it to be in same columns like you used to in JMP?"
I said, "N o. I'm going to try to do it directly JMP."
This is what I did.
I started by importing the data leaving out row number three.
I just have to tell JMP that is two header rows and it should skip
row number three and start on row number four.
Do that and I have all the data with the two rows of header on top.
But now this is a white table so I want to stack this.
S elect all the columns, put them into stack.
Now I have to tell JMP there's four of these columns that go together,
and JMP actually seems to get four by four
the way they should be.
I just click okay,
and then I have a table containing all the data,
a lot of data rows stacked on top of each other.
I only have four columns actually containing the data and four columns
called label that described what is in those data columns.
I could be working from here,
but rather also have the sample name there.
Do the import again; st art all over.
This time I want row number three
still including both header rows and include row number three,
so data states starts here.
Click next,
and then I have to tell you that you could skip everything after row three.
There you go.
You have one row of data containing the sample names.
Still this is wide so I want it in the long version
like I have with the data table,
so do stack again.
Select all the columns in to stack.
This time I don't have to tell JMP anything, just stack what you have there.
There you have it.
Another data table with all the sample names here.
I named this one Sample.
This one I can match with the original data table.
That's what I'll do.
I go to the data table, it's named Untitled Three.
Then I go to update,
and in update I say, "Update with data from Untitled Six."
What should I take from there?
Selected the columns, sample,
replace nothing in the old data table
and now I match the label here with label here.
Click okay and I end up with a data table
with all the data and all the sample names.
Again, I could work from here but
since this was quite fast I want to tidy up a bit.
I want these labels to go up here,
this label to go up there and so on.
J ust copy these
and go down here and paste them into the data two, data three, data four.
They end up here.
After doing that, I don't need the label columns anymore.
I can just remove those.
Now I have all the data in their columns headings
with the right column headings and the sample name here.
Now, of course, this is where the actual fun begins.
It's very easy now to pick out certain samples and do what not.
That's the fun part of JMP, of course.
What I conveyor here is try not wasting too much time
in Excel cutting and pasting because chances are
you might as well do it in JMP in much, much less time.
I've been using JMP for many, many years and still trying to realize
all the stuff you can do so I'm going to try this a lot more.
That's all from me today.
Thank you very much for listening.
