SIMULATION
Scenario:
This project will use data setcert.input04. At any time, you may save your program asprogram04incert\programs. Write a SAS program that will create the data setresults.output04.
In this program, complete the following mathematical actions, in the following order:
Round VAR1 and VAR2 to the nearest integer values.
Multiply the rounded VAR1b y the rounded VAR2 and assign the new value to VAR3.
Add VAR12 through VAR19 (8 variables) together, ignoring missing values. Assign the sum to VAR20.
For observation 16, what is the value ofVAR3? Enter your numeric answer in the space below:
SAS code that could be used to solve this project:
data results.output04;
set cert.input04;
var3=round(var1,1)*round(var2,1);
var20=sum(of var12-var19);
run;
proc print data=results.output04 (obs=16 firstobs=16);
var var3 var20;
run;
The 'obs' option controls the last observation SAS processes. If you set obs=16, SAS would read and process only up to the 16th observation in the data set.
The 'firstobs' option controls the starting observation. If you set firstobs=16, SAS would start reading and processing from the 16th observation.
