- here is an intro stats question i have recently encountered and am
- sorry to say, dont know how to answer. all suggestions are appreciated.
-
- if i use proc freq to do a chisq and get a table that looks like:
-
- var1
- 1 2 4
- -----
- 1 | 8 7 3
- var2 2 | 1 5 8
- 6 | 1 3 3
-
- note that some of the categories of the two variables are missing.
- in reality the table looks like:
-
-
- var1
- 1 2 3 4
- -------
- 1 | 8 7 0 3
- var2 2 | 1 5 0 8
- 3 | 0 0 0 0
- 4 | 0 0 0 0
- 5 | 0 0 0 0
- 6 | 1 3 0 3
-
- how does one have sas take this into account - or does it even matter?
