DO Loop

deleted_user — Sun, 23 Jan 2011 14:13:38 GMT

Hi All,

Kindly could anyone suggest how do we get to the output as below using the codesn 1. and 2. :

1.

data invest (drop =i);
do i=1 to 3;
capital+2000;
capital+capital*.1;
end;
run;

Output is: Capital=7282

2.

data invest (drop =year);
do year=1 to 3;
capital+2000;
do month=1 to 3;
Interest=capital*(0.075/12);
end;
end;
run;

Output : Capital=6000, Month=4, Interest=37.5

Kind Regards,
Kriti

You need to add an explicit OUTPUT statement inside your DO/END loop.

Unsure what you want to achieve, but rather then an output statement, maybe you want to add a
[pre]put _ALL_;[/pre]
statement before run; ?
