Wait, could it be option C? That period might be a problem.
NI

Agree, it's gotta be option B!
VE

No way, the PAGENO option is valid, so option A is out.
AR

I'm surprised this error isn't more obvious!
AL

I think the RUN statement is definitely missing.

I don't think the LABEL option is necessary for PROC PRINT to run, so I'm leaning towards one of the other options being the cause of the error.
AL
Alison 12 months ago
I feel like the format name with a period could be problematic, but I can't recall if that's a strict rule or just a common mistake.

I remember practicing a question where a RUN statement was missing, and it caused an error. That could be the issue here too.
RE

I think the error might be related to the PAGENO option, but I'm not entirely sure if it's valid in that context.
EL

The format name with a period in the VALUE statement might be the culprit. I'll investigate that possibility.

The missing RUN statement after the FORMAT procedure could be the problem. I'll make sure to check for that.
KE
Kenneth 1 year ago
Hmm, the PAGENO option in the OPTIONS statement seems suspicious. I'll double-check the syntax for that.
YO
Yoko 1 year ago
This looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully review the SAS code and options to identify the issue.
AV
Avery 1 year ago
The answer has to be B. The RUN statement is definitely missing after the FORMAT procedure. How else will the program know when to stop?
ER

Wait, wait, wait. Isn't the real answer that the program is just a secret code to summon a horde of SAS-wielding data ninjas? I bet that's it.
AL
Alison 1 year ago
I think the answer is C. The format name containing a period in the VALUE statement is not allowed in SAS.

I agree, the format name containing a period in the VALUE statement is not allowed.
TA

I believe the error is due to the missing RUN statement after the FORMAT procedure.
ER
Erick 1 year ago
I think the error is because the PAGENO option is invalid.
