The HPCANDISC Procedure
FREQ variable ;
The variable in the FREQ statement identifies a numeric variable in the data set that contains the frequency of occurrence of each observation. SAS high-performance analytics procedures that support the FREQ statement treat each observation as if it appeared f times, where f is the value of the FREQ variable for the observation. If the frequency value is not an integer, it is truncated to an integer. If the frequency value is less than 1 or missing, the observation is not used in the analysis. When the FREQ statement is not specified, each observation is assigned a frequency of 1.
The total number of observations is considered to be equal to the sum of the FREQ variable when the procedure determines degrees of freedom for significance probabilities.
