I can get separate histograms for each occurrence of the variable "tipo" by using this code

 

proc sgplot data=dc6 NOAUTOLEGEND;
vbar cod_prob /response=popresidente group=cod_prob;
title justify=center "xxxxx";
xaxis label='probability (%)' labelattrs=(size=7) valueattrs=(size=7);
yaxis label='population' labelattrs=(size=7) valueattrs=(size=7) values=(0 to 15000000 by 1000000);
format popresidente comma10.0;
by tipo;
run;

 

I wonder whether it is possibile with SAS to obtain a histogram with separate groups of bars, like in graph attached I made by using excel.

 

Thanks for your help

In a DATA step, create a new variable which is the combination of the two classification variables.

 

new_class_var = cats(tipo,'/'second_class_var);
