Looking for help to solve a problem using SAS data set

Ra6 — Mon, 18 Feb 2019 22:00:05 GMT

Hello good people,

Recently, I have started using SAS for analyzing data and I did not have any prior experience regarding using SAS for data analysis. I will really appreciate if anyone please help me to solve the problem below. I want to show the effect of average snow depth on bulk density (with three depths 0-5, 5-10 and 10-20). Basically, I will have to find out that bulk density will increase or decrease for average snow depth. I have also attached the data file here.

Input plot $ BD_zero_to_five BD_five_to_ten BD_ten_to_twenty $ Average_snow_depth;

Is this just a part of your data? Because as it is, Average_snow_depth is a constant value of 12, and no such analysis is possible.

yes, that's a part but the rest of the data for average snow depth is also constant

Without a change in a certain column, there's nothing to analyze. "All roads lead to Rome", so it doesn't matter which one you take, so to say.
