NumericRepresentationBaseType

Defines the representation for a numeric response. May be a range or specific value, or a list of ranges.

Properties

Name	Type		Description
NumberRange	NumberRangeType	0..n	Defines the valid number range or number values for the representation.
NumericTypeCode	CodeValueType	0..1	Identification of the numeric type such as integer, decimal, etc. supports the use of an external controlled vocabulary. The DDI Alliance has provided a controlled vocabulary (NumericType) to support this element at http://www.ddialliance.org/controlled-vocabularies.
Format	string	0..1	A format for number expressed as a string.
Scale	int	0..1	The scale of the number expressed as an integer (for example a number expressed in 100’s, 5 = 500 would have a scale of 100).
DecimalPositions	int	0..1	The number of decimal positions expressed as an integer (precision of the number).
Interval_IntervalType	nonNegativeInteger	0..1	The interval between valid responses expressed as an integer.
Accuracy	decimal	0..1	The level to which a number is considered to be accurate. Expressed as a decimal.

Name	Type		Description
RecommendedDataType	CodeValueType	0..1	This field provides the recommended treatment of the data within an application. The value should come from a controlled vocabulary - recommended values include the set found in W3C XML Schema Part 2, but excluding string sub-types, QNAME, and NOTATION. The DDI Alliance has provided a controlled vocabulary (DataType) to support this element at http://www.ddialliance.org/controlled-vocabularies.
GenericOutputFormat	CodeValueType	0..1	This field provides a recommended generic treatment of the data for display by an application. The value should come from a controlled vocabulary.
MeasurementUnit	CodeValueType	0..1	Records the measurement unit, for example, ‘km’, ‘miles’, etc. Supports the use of a controlled vocabulary.
MissingValue	string	0..1	List the values used to represent missing data. Use of MissingValuesReference is preferred. If this content does not match the values provided in the MissingValuesReference, the content of the MissingValuesReference overrides the content of this attribute.
BlankIsMissingValue	boolean	0..1	When value is true a blank or empty variable content should be treated as a missing value. Use of MissingValuesReference is preferred.
ClassificationLevelCode	CodeValueType	0..1	Indicates the type of relationship, nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio, or continuous. Use where appropriate for the representation type. Valid values include: Nominal, Ordinal, Interval, Ratio, Continuous
