FREQ variable;


Required Arguments

variable
specifies a numeric variable whose value represents the frequency of the observation. If you use the FREQ statement, the procedure assumes that each observation represents n observations, where n is the value of variable. If variable is not an integer, the SAS System truncates it. If variable is less than 1 or is missing, the procedure excludes that observation from the analysis.
