The MEANS Procedure |
Main discussion: | FREQ |
FREQ variable; |
Required Arguments |
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.
Note: The FREQ variable does not affect how PROC MEANS identifies multiple extremes when you use the IDGROUP syntax in the OUTPUT statement.
