How many statements are In the program shown below?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

In the provided program, there are six distinct SAS statements:

data FemaleStudents; - Data step beginning

set sashelp.Class; - Set statement

where Sex='F'; - Where statement

Classroom='Red Room'; - Assignment statement

run; - Run statement to execute the data step

title 'Female Students in Red Room'; - Title statement

Note that the proc print and the second run; statement are part of another PROC step to print the results and hence are not counted in this particular count. The final title; statement is used to clear the title setting and does not count as part of the program statements being asked about.

I’m a bit confused about what counts as a statement. Does a comment count?

I remember a similar question from our practice tests, and I think it was about counting lines of code.
