Hello,

  I have one categorical with 5 values: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.   The data is 50 observations.

I'd like to create pie chart showing in frequency by using proc schart as follow:

proc gchart data=softdrink_new;
format X X_value_label.;
pie X / sumvar=X ;
run;

But the result of pie chart show the number which are not frequency of each category and label only on piece of the pie chart.

How can I correct this problem?   Moreover, how to show the number in percentage in separate and the same pie chart?

Thank You

Hi @Golf 

 

Would this code meet your needs?

data softdrink_new;
	input X @@;
	datalines;
1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 4 2 2 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5
;
run;

proc format;
	value X_value_label 1="label1" 2="label2" 3="label3" 4="label4" 5="label5";
run;


/*Only frequencies*/
proc gchart data=softdrink_new;
	format X  X_value_label.;
	pie X / type=freq discrete; 
run;

/*Only percents*/
proc gchart data=softdrink_new;
	format X  X_value_label.;
	pie X / type=percent discrete; 
run;

/*Frequencies + percent*/
proc gchart data=softdrink_new;
	format X  X_value_label.;
	pie X / percent=outside discrete; 
run;

Best,
