what is the difference btw proc means and proc univariate?

Answer Posted / sandhya

PROC UNIVARIATE gives more descriptive statistics such as
skewness, kurtosis, Q_PLOT and so on. If you are looking
for an indepth analysis of the data, like clustering,
association tree,..., we start with PROC UNIVARIATE.

If we are looking for some simple results like sum mean SD
and to find extreme values we use PROC MEANS as it takes
less of machine time than PROC UNIVARIATE.
