1.Provide
a short explanation of what a SAS Studio task is.
SAS is an accounting software that allows the user to create a frequency table, pie chart, and bar graphs in a frequency distribution. The software helps in an easy computation of analytical data.
2.Generate a one-way frequency table, a pie chart, and a bar chart. Then add an additional field and generate a two-way frequency table. Download your output to a Microsoft Word document and answer this question there: What can you infer from this output?
2.1 One-way frequency table
2.2 A pie chart
2.3 A bar chart
2.4 A two-way frequency table
3.Feel free to select a data field from the same data table and generate descriptive statistics using SAS Studio’s summary statistics task. Include all relevant measures, a histogram and normal density curve, inset statistics, and a box plot. Add these outputs to your Word document, then answer these questions there: Analyze your output. What do the measures tell you? Is your data skewed? Does it exhibit kurtosis? What is the interquartile range? What insights about the data you have chosen do you derive from this analysis?
The data shows a wide variation in distribution tails. it have exhibit kurtosis. The data is not skewed. A line of kurtosis leaves out the uneven distribution of data.
