hello i have a code which when I running, it doesn't work. I cannot troubleshoot the errors.

proc freq data=temp;
table type_weather;
run;
data =temp;
set temperature;
if type_weather <= 3 then precipitation ='dry';
else precipitation = 'wet' ;
run;

proc print data=temp;
var precipitation type_weather;
run;
proc freq data=temp;
tables modiness * type_weather / expected chisq;
run;

Look at the log and go through them one by one. I'm guessing your first one is at data=temp? That's becaue there should not be an equal sign there. Post your log and code if you need further help.

Also, if you're creating temp in step 2, how is it available for the previous step - the PROC FREQ? The temp data set has not been creating at this point in time.

Doesn't work is awful vague.

Are there errors in the log?: Post the code and log in a code box opened with the {i} to maintain formatting of error messages.

No output? Post any log in a code box.

Unexpected output? Provide input data in the form of data step code pasted into a code box, the actual results and the expected results. Instructions here: https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Communities-Library/How-to-create-a-data-step-version-of-your-dat... will show how to turn an existing SAS data set into data step code that can be pasted into a forum code box using the {i} icon or attached as text to show exactly what you have and that we can test code against.

The error in the forth line which is

data =temp;

just remove the (=) sign

it will be data temp;
