3
5

;
run;
proc freq data=dups;
tables var1/norow nocol nopercent;
run;
The output will be like this
var1 frequency cumulative frequency
1 1 1
2 1 2
3 2 4
4 2 6
5 1 7
6 1 8
here the observations for the variable var1 3 and 4 are
appered 2 times and remaining appeared for 1 time by
seeing the frequency of corresponding variable and
observation
