Not sure about that, looks like A could work too.

Wait, is "orderby" even a valid keyword?

I thought "orderby" was valid, but now I’m questioning if it’s just a syntax error. I should have reviewed that part more!

I’m leaning towards option B, but I’m a bit confused about whether we need to include both variables in the sort.

I remember practicing PROC SORT, but I’m not sure if "orderby" is the right keyword. I think it might be "by" instead.

I feel like I’ve seen a question similar to this, and I think "by Age Name" would sort it correctly, but I’m not completely confident.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to think it through carefully. The options all seem plausible, but I'm not sure which one is the "most significant" problem.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. Enabling speech for a chatbot seems like it would involve more than just a few steps. I'll need to think this through carefully.

Wait, what's the difference between "Woodgrove Basic" and "Woodgrove Plus"? I want to make sure I'm replacing the right thing.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know the binomial distribution is used for pass/fail tests, but I'm not sure if that applies here since we have fixed-size shipments. Maybe the hypergeometric distribution would be more appropriate?
