Histograms

deleted_user — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 09:01:44 GMT

Hello All ,

I use the code -

/*Generate a table for the total number of units sold over each week*/
proc tabulate data=WEEK f = comma8.;
class week Laptopmodel;
var UnitsSold;
table week*Laptopmodel,
Unitssold;
run;
proc print data = Tabulate;
run;

This gives me :-

Sorted Sales Data 08:54 Saturday, March 6, 2010 65

----------------------------------
| | UnitsSold
| | |
| |--------|
| | Sum
|-----------------------+--------|
|Week |LaptopModel|
|-----------+-----------| |
|Week1 |AP3965 | 67
| |-----------+--------|
| | AT3600 | 36
|-----------+-----------+--------|
|Week2 |AP3965 | 73
| |-----------+--------|
| | AT3600 | 35
|-----------+-----------+--------|
|Week3 AP3965 | 102
| |-----------+--------|
| | AT3600 | 31
|-----------+----------+--------|
|Week4 AP3965 | 127
| |-----------+--------|
| | AT3600 | 40
----------------------------------

I want to obtain a Histogram that shows me the Number of units sold for two periods - period 1 ( week 1 + week 2 ) and period 2 ( week 3 + week 4 )

Kind Regards ,
mark

You have seriously to start and invest some time and energy in learning SAS.

There is very good SAS training available, excellent SAS books and white papers and the SAS Online Doc covers more than you ever will be able to digest.

What I feel is not acceptable is you posting question after question showing clearly that you yourself have done little or no own investigation, haven't invested in learning nor spent energy to get your brain up to speed.

If you want other people to do your job, then please offer also part of your salary for the help you get. But even better change your attitude and start learning.

Until you don't get better I will ignore your questions from now on - and I'm almost sure that others will follow.

Sorry to be so hard on you but you really seem to need it!

Cheers
Patrick

Hello Patrick ,

This message encourged me to start by doing on own and I have started learning the working of Proc Tabulate and now am able to play around with the code.I should have first tried on my own and then asked my doubt.

Thank you so much.

Kind regards ,
