Hi guys
Just wondering whats the term to receive 20th percentile in proc summary? Q1 =25% and Q3=50%, but what is the term for 20th percentile?
I typically use:
PROC SUMMARY PRINT N MEAN STD MEDIAN Min Max MEDIAN Q1 Q3;
VAR x x1 x2 x3; run;
Good news!
As of SAS 9.3, all of the "mod 10" percentiles have been added to PROC MEANS and SUMMARY!
For 20th percentile, use P20.

The only percentiles available in Proc Summary are 1,5,10,25,50,75,90,95,99. To get other percentiles, you need Proc Univariate, use the PCTLPTS option within the OUTPUT statement.
