Language In IBM SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences), "Command Syntax" refers to the method of interacting with the software through text-based commands or scripts rather than using the graphical user interface (GUI) provided by the software. Command Syntax allows users to perform data analysis and manipulation tasks by typing out specific commands in a structured syntax, and SPSS will then execute those commands to carry out the desired operations.
