is there any differnce between proc means and proc summary?
Answer Posted / kumaraswamy madoori
1) Proc Means generate a default output but Proc Summary
require Print option to generate output similar to proc
means.
2) To get similar outputs Proc summary should compulsory
have atleast one variable in VAR statement.
If you want a proof for the above please run the below code:
proc means data=sasuser.admit;
run;
proc summary data=sasuser.admit print;
run;
The outputs will be different.
