     The compute dialog is used to compute new variables.

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     The name of the new variable must be a valid R object name
     (consisting only of upper and lower-case letters, numerals, and
     periods, and not starting with a numeral).

     Enter an R expression in the box at the right. The expression is
     evaluated using the active data set.  You can double-click in the
     variable-list box to enter variable names in the expression.  The
     expression must evaluate to a valid variable, which is added to
     the active data set.
