    <description>&lt;P&gt;If the data in variable &lt;FONT face="courier new,courier"&gt;plc_cnt_no&lt;/FONT&gt; is all integers, you may not get decimal places in your percentiles.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I'm working on a large dataset using SAS Viya. I'm trying to calculate the percentiles with a couple decimal points but it does not appear to be working correctly.&amp;nbsp; Does anyone have suggestions?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;PRE&gt;&lt;CODE class=" language-sas"&gt;proc print data=stats1.finaldata1;
	format plc_cnt_no z3.2;
run;

proc univariate data=stats1.finaldata1;
	VAR plc_cnt_no;
	output out=pctls
		pctlpre=P
		pctlpts=33,80,90;
	informat plc_cnt_no z3.2;
run;&lt;/CODE&gt;&lt;/PRE&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Capture.PNG" style="width: 600px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://communities.sas.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/33033i15C9C1B9D566A7C8/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="Capture.PNG" alt="Capture.PNG" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
