Filter to Include Observations for HWE Test

This optional feature enables you to specify a subset of the input data set for use in the test for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE). Only those observations that meet all of the conditions specified are included in the analysis.

For example, to filter only diseased individuals from a data set containing a mixed population of diseased (sick) and healthy (healthy) individuals (as indicated in a column named DiseaseStatus), you could use the following simple WHERE expression:

WHERE DiseaseStatus = ‘sick’

Note: The word where has already been entered for you.

Note: Any filter specified in the Filter to Include Observations field is applied before the filters specified here.

Note: All statistics, except for HWE, are calculated ignoring the filter specified using this option.
