This book provides an introduction and formal definition of
the basic rules, terminology and conventions of the GenStat command language.
It then presents a detailed description of the facilities that GenStat
provides for input and output, data manipulation, calculations, programming
and graphics. Unlike the GenStat Reference Manual, which describes the
commands one at a time, here the information is categorized by type of
activity. The facilities are introduced by means of examples, which illustrate
the commonest tasks and explain the output that can be obtained.
The text of this book is also available online. It can be accessed by clicking the
Help button, then GenStat Guides,
followed by Syntax and Data Management.
