Yeah, inspiration on what *not* to do. I googled on "SAS PROC FREQ" and found this: http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/procstat/63104/HTML/default/procstat_freq_sect006.htm All the words are in English, but I have no idea what the function does, how you would call it, and what it returns. Would it have been so hard to show a couple of examples? Documentation like that really makes me appreciate the sterling work done on Python's docs. This tutorial: http://www2.sas.com/proceedings/sugi30/263-30.pdf is much clearer. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
