MEANS Procedure
FREQ Statement
Specifies a numeric variable that contains the frequency
of each observation.
Syntax
Required Argument
- variable
-
specifies a numeric
variable whose value represents the frequency of the observation.
If you use the FREQ statement, then the procedure assumes that each
observation represents n observations,
where n is the value of variable.
If n is not an integer, then
SAS truncates it. If n is
less than 1 or is missing, then the procedure does not use that observation
to calculate statistics.
The sum of the frequency
variable represents the total number of observations.
Note: The FREQ variable does not
affect how PROC MEANS identifies multiple extremes when you use the
IDGROUP syntax in the OUTPUT statement.
