Come up with a good example.csv

[borsna]

Create a minimal example.csv with different type of variables with some missing values etc.

This file could be used for creating examples for developers across different DDI products.

Hilde and Wolfgang are working on this

CDI-ho-wzm.csv

[moeltgen]

The example

• includes different measurement scales: metric, ordinal, nominal, date, datetime
• includes different measurement units
• includes negative values, representing missing values
• includes positive values, representing missing values
• includes missing data (empty cell)
• uses controlled vocabularies
• has identifier variable and measures and attributes
• uses wide data format

Content

• csv 1 contains the data
• csv 2 contains the list of variables
• csv 3 contains the list of codes

each csv has a header row

Adrian has provided his structure for the metadata in csv :)

Here are the files that should contain good small examples:

csv-1-data.csv
csv-2-variables.csv
csv-3-codes.csv
docs.txt
