  3. SAS Data Management SAS DATA SOURCES University Information Technology Services Center for Statistical and Mathematical Computing

  4. SAS Data Management DATA STEP • DATA steps read and manipulate data. • INPUT tells how SAS reads data. • DATALINES indicates data items to be read begin from the next line. • INFILE reads data from an external file. • LIBNAME sm ‘c:\temp\sas’; • DATA sm.grade0; • INPUT name $ id stat math; • DATALINES; • John 10091 89 95 • … • RUN; University Information Technology Services Center for Statistical and Mathematical Computing

  5. SAS Data Management INPUT STATEMENT • There are six input styles. • List INPUT: simply list variable names • Modified list INPUT: for ill-organized data • Column INPUT: location of data items • Formatted INPUT: format of data items • Named INPUT: variable=data • Mixed INPUT: combine input styles • SAS recognizes styles automatically. • List (previous slide), column, and formatted INPUT are commonly used. University Information Technology Services Center for Statistical and Mathematical Computing

  6. SAS Data Management COLUMN INPUT • Specify column locations of data items • $ follows a character variable name • Data should be aligned correctly • Some data may be skipped (id below) • DATA sm.grade1; • INPUT name $ 1-6 stat 12-14 math 15-17; • DATALINES; • John 10091 89 95 • Rachel10100 99 • … • RUN; University Information Technology Services Center for Statistical and Mathematical Computing

  7. SAS Data Management FORMATTED INPUT • Specify formats of data items. • Data should be aligned correctly. • $6. means a string 6 characters long. • 3.0 or 3. means a 3 digit number without a decimal point. • DATA sm.grade2; • INPUT name $6. id 5. male 3. stat 3.0; • DATALINES; • John 10091 89 95 • Rachel10100 99 • … University Information Technology Services Center for Statistical and Mathematical Computing
