The UNIVARIATE Procedure

Procedure Syntax

Tip:	Supports the Output Delivery System. See Output Delivery System
Reminder:	You can use the ATTRIB, FORMAT, LABEL, and WHERE statements. See Statements with the Same Function in Multiple Procedures for details. You can also use any global statements as well. See Global Statements for a list.

PROC UNIVARIATE <option(s)>;

BY <DESCENDING> variable-1 <...<DESCENDING> variable-n>
<NOTSORTED>;

CLASS variable-1<(variable-option(s))> <variable-2<(variable-option(s))>>
</ KEYLEVEL='value1'|('value1' 'value2')>;

FREQ variable;

HISTOGRAM <variable(s)> </ option(s)>;

ID variable(s);

INSET <keyword(s) DATA=SAS-data-set> </ option(s)>;

OUTPUT <OUT=SAS-data-set> statistic-keyword-1=name(s)
<... statistic-keyword-n=name(s)> <percentiles-specification>;

PROBPLOT <variable(s)> </ option(s)>;

QQPLOT <variable(s)> </ option(s)>;

VAR variable(s);

WEIGHT variable;

To do this Use this statement

Calculate separate statistics for each BY group BY

Specify up to two class variables to categorize the analysis CLASS

Specify a variable that contains the frequency of each observation FREQ

Create a high-resolution graph of a histogram HISTOGRAM

Specify one or more variables whose values identify the extreme observations ID

Inset a table of summary statistics in a high-resolution graph INSET

Create an output data set that contains specified statistics OUTPUT

Create a high-resolution graph of a probability plot PROBPLOT

Create a high-resolution graph of a quantile-quantile plot QQPLOT

Select the analysis variables and determine their order in the report VAR

Identify a variable whose values weight each observation in the statistical calculations WEIGHT
