The HPSUMMARY Procedure

FREQ Statement

Subsections:

  • FREQ variable;

The FREQ statement specifies a numeric variable that contains the frequency of each observation.

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.
