Do you prefer Proc Report or Proc Tabulate? Why?

Answer Posted / chiranjeevi.p

Proc tabulate is reffered as the 'semi statistical
procedure',which is used to generate the tabular reports.
proc report:
proc report is a pre defined procedure using which we can
generate a reports.Using the proc report,two kinds of
reports can be generated.there are
1)Detailed report
2)Summary report
Summary report is the report,which can hold more than one
observation in it.it is referred as S.report.
Detailed report is the report which can hold only a single
observation in it explained in detail.
so we can prefer the proc report instead of proc tabulate.
