Hi all, I want to determine the number of counts for each case using proc tabulate.
data have;
input gender $ jail count;
datalines;
1 Y 15
1 Y 11
1 N 21
2 Y 67
2 N 31
;
run;
I understand in proc freq using the weight statement allows to get the frequency of the counts in each case.
proc freq data = have;
weight count;
table gender*jail;
run;
any thoughts on getting the frequency counts using proc tabulate?
Thank you.
The code is almost identical, just add the two Variables to a class statement and change the weight to freq.

ok, thank you!
Here's a few different ways:
proc tabulate data=have;
class gender jail;
freq count;
table gender*jail*n='count';
table gender,
jail*n='count';
table gender,
jail=''*n='count';
table gender,
jail=''*n='';
run;
with an appropriate format for gender the label for gender probably wouldn't be needed either.
Advantage of Tabulate over freq is control of appearance so might as well use it. Note the comma separates page, row and column dimensions.
@ballardwThis exactly what Ineeded and some more. Thank you very much!
