FREQ variable;
The FREQ statement specifies a numeric variable whose value represents the frequency of the observation. If you use the FREQ statement, the procedure assumes that each observation represents n observations, where n is the value of variable. If the variable is not an integer, the SAS System truncates it. If the variable is less than 1 or is missing, the procedure excludes that observation from the analysis. See Example 4.6.
Note: The FREQ statement affects the degrees of freedom, but the WEIGHT statement does not.
