[sz247]

In the Bank data, the client's age is individual figuer. I want to group them into several group for my analysing purpose. May I know how to do it? any link for it? Thanks.

Use proc format to create your age ranges

What analysis do you intend to do?

Hi Thank you for your reply.
A Portuguese bank provided a direct marketing campaign, selling term-deposit product by calling its customers. THe data includes customers' age. I want to show the age distribution and yes/no subscription through a stack bar chart. I need to group age into several groups.

Then I agree with @ghosh and @Reeza, use PROC FORMAT to create the groups, then apply the format to the variable age.

Use PROC FORMAT

Or use IF/THEN statements
