Hi,

When I use the output statement to generate dataset containing median and quantiles, it always displayed with rounded one decimal place. Since I need to contain at least two decimals I tried use ods output and it didn't work either

Thanks

I don't understand, when I run the following program:

proc univariate data=sashelp.cars;

var engineSize horsePower;

output out=carsOut mean=mne mnh median=mde mdh;

run;

proc print data=carsout; run;

I get plenty of decimals.

What version of SAS are you working on? Sample of your code is always good Smiley Happy

You can try changing the format as well.

[Modified from PG]

proc univariate data=sashelp.cars;

var engineSize horsePower;

format engineSize horsePower 8.2;

output out=carsOut mean=mne mnh median=mde mdh;

run;

proc print data=carsout; run;
