Dear all,
I search to verify if a variable is an identifiant that is to say that
each row of a file have a different value on this variable than all the
others rows.
I want to use the -inspect- to compare the number of "unique value" (if
the number of unique value is equal to the number of individual then the
variable is an identifiant) but -inspect- don't count the number of
different values if this number is superior to 100.
Have someone an idea ?
Best regards,
Jean-Benoit
