4. Using the SAS data set called “main”, create a new dataset “four” by doing the following: a. Add formatting to the variable “weekdayb” in the following format: 1 = Monday, 2 = Tuesday, … 7 = Sunday. Hint: Don’t forget that formatting takes TWO steps! b. Check your work by creating a frequency table for “weekdayb”. Unfinished Code *lab 8 – Problem 4; proc; data proc; run;

i did as follows;

proc format;
value weekdayb
1 = 'Monday'
2 = 'Tuesday'
3 = 'Wednesday'
4 = 'Thursday'
5 = 'Friday'
6 = 'Saturday'
7 = 'Sunday';
run;

data lab.four;
set lab.main;
format weekdayb;
run;

proc freq data=lab.four;
tables weekdayb;
run;

Your FORMAT statement requires both the variable you are using your FORMAT on and the format name you are applying:

format weekdayb weekdayb.;
