Hi

 

I have a simple dataset, which contains several demographic variables such as sex and age of persons.

 

I would like to display the mean std median p25 p65 p75 p85 and p95 of the variable "age".

 

I use the proc univariate command, which does not give me p65, p85 and p95 automatically.

 

Is there an easy way to provide them with proc univariate?

 

 

Thank you!

You can have PROC UNIVARIATE write these percentiles to the output data set.

 

proc univariate data=sashelp.class;
    var height;
    output out=stats pctlpts=65 75 85 95 pctlpre=pctile_;
run;
