CONCLUSION
PROC FREQ is a very powerful but simple and necessary procedure in SAS. This Beginning
Tutorial has just scratched the surface of the functionality of PROC FREQ. The author’s hope is
that these several basic examples will serve as a guide for the user to extend their knowledge of
PROC FREQ and experiment with other uses for their specific data needs.
