AGREE

Name:
    AGREE (LET)
Type:
    Library Function
Purpose:
    Return a 1 if the values agree and return a 0 if any of the values disagree.

    The DISAGREE function returns a 1 if any of the values disagree and a 0 if all the values agree.

Syntax 1:
    LET <yout> = AGREE(<y1>,..., <yk>)
                            <SUBSET/EXCEPT/FOR qualification>
    where <y1>, ..., <yk> is a list of one to eight variable or parameters;
                <yout> is a variable or a parameter (depending on what <y1> ... <yk> are) where the computed response values are stored;
    and where the <SUBSET/EXCEPT/FOR qualification> is optional.
Syntax 2:
    LET <yout> = DISAGREE(<y1>,..., <yk>)
                            <SUBSET/EXCEPT/FOR qualification>
    where <y1>, ..., <yk> is a list of one to eight variables or parameters;
                <yout> is a variable or a parameter (depending on what <y1> ... <yk> are) where the computed response values are stored;
    and where the <SUBSET/EXCEPT/FOR qualification> is optional.
Examples:
    LET A = AGREE(1,0)
    LET YOUT = AGREE(Y1,Y2)
    LET YOUT = AGREE(Y1,Y2,Y3,Y4)
    LET YOUT = AGREE(Y1,Y2,Y3,Y4) SUBSET TAG = 1
    LET YOUT = DISAGREE(Y1,Y2)
Default:
    None
Synonyms:
    EQ and EQUAL are synonyms for AGREE
    NE and NOTEQUAL are synonyms for DISAGREE

Program: 
     
LET Y1 = DATA 1 1 0 0 0 1
LET Y2 = DATA 1 0 1 0 1 0
LET YOUT1 = AGREE(Y1,Y2)
LET YOUT2 = DISAGREE(Y1,Y2)
SET WRITE DECIMALS 0
PRINT Y1 Y2 YOUT1 YOUT2
    The following output is generated
