Assigning Data to Roles

To run the One-Way Frequencies task, you must select an input data source. To filter the input data source, click Filter Icon.
You must assign a column to the Analysis variables role.
Role
Description
Roles
Analysis variables
specifies the variables to be analyzed. For each variable that you assign to this role, the task creates a one-way frequency table. You must assign at least one variable to this role.
Additional Roles
Frequency count
lists a numeric variable whose value represents the frequency of the observation. If you assign a variable to this role, the task assumes that each observation represents n observations, where n is the value of the frequency variable. If n is not an integer, SAS truncates it. If n is less than 1 or is missing, the observation is excluded from the analysis. The sum of the frequency variable represents the total number of observations.
Group analysis by
enables you to obtain separate analyses of observations for each unique group.
