Hello,
I am new to SAS, so this is probably a simple solution. Attached is the PROC CONTENTS of my data and the results from PROC FREQ. Below is the code I used.
proc freq data=Homework.inpatientAmountoregon;
table bene_sex_ident_cd*inpatientTotalAmount;
title "Gender Total Payments";
run;
I don't really care about the frequency within each interval of inpatientTotalAmount. I only want the total payments made for each gender. How would I go about making a 2x2 table to display that?
proc freq data=Homework.inpatientAmountoregon;
table bene_sex_ident_cd;
weight inpatientTotalAmount;
title "Gender Total Payments";
run;
I only want the total payments made for each gender.
How about this?
proc freq data=Homework.inpatientAmountoregon;
table bene_sex_ident_cd;
title "Gender Total Payments";
run;
Wouldn't that only get me the number of males and females in dataset?
proc freq data=Homework.inpatientAmountoregon;
table bene_sex_ident_cd;
weight inpatientTotalAmount;
title "Gender Total Payments";
run;
Yes! I figured out how to do it with PROC SUMMARY too, and the numbers match up. Thank you!
