I am trying to produce a histogram in Sas. I keep getting this error for some reason. I thought maybe it was my browser, so I tried it both on Chrome and Firefox with nothing different happening. Is this a Sas problem or my computer just acting weird? (I made a dummy data set and provided the log).
Code:
Data ab;
input first second;
datalines;
1 1
2 1
2 2
;
run;
proc sgplot;
series X=first Y=second;
run;
