thanks for your adding to FreelanceReinh reply. So now I understand how it is computed, but what is the significance of this number? ... View more

thanks for the quick response. I still don't understand what is the significance of table probability? what does it indicate? see this example below for instance. Is 0.42 is the probability of getting this table from all possible tables with the same marginal sums? also, what does P-value of 1 mean? it surely doesn't mean that this is the only possibility of the distribution of the frequencies.      Fisher's Exact Test Cell (1,1) Frequency (F) 45 Left-sided Pr <= F 0.4232 Right-sided Pr >= F 1     Table Probability (P) 0.4232 Two-sided Pr <= P 1 ...

yes, that works. I'm not much familiar with ODS so I didn't think of it.  thank you so much.   Proc FREQ can produce Standard Residuals by adding CROSSLIST and STDRES in the Table options. i.e.  table type * prov / chisq cellchi2 expected CROSSLIST stdres out=std_red crosslist ; weight count_number; run; ...
