The SASEFAME Interface Engine: Mapping FAME Frequencies to SAS Time Intervals

The SASEFAME Interface Engine

Mapping FAME Frequencies to SAS Time Intervals

Table 34.3 summarizes the mapping of FAME frequencies to SAS time intervals. It is important to note that FAME frequencies often have a sample unit in parentheses following the keyword frequency. This sample unit is an end-of-interval unit. SAS dates are represented using beginning-of-interval notation. For more on SAS time intervals, see Chapter 4, Date Intervals, Formats, and Functions. For more on FAME frequencies, see the section "Understanding Frequencies" in the User’s Guide to FAME.
