Mapping Fame Frequencies to SAS Time Intervals

Table 41.4 summarizes the mapping of Fame frequencies to SAS time intervals. Fame frequencies often have a sample unit in parentheses after the keyword frequency. This sample unit is an end-of-interval unit. SAS dates are represented by beginning-of-interval notation.

For more information about SAS time intervals, see Chapter 4: Date Intervals, Formats, and Functions.

For more information about Fame frequencies, see the section "Understanding Frequencies" in the User’s Guide to Fame.
