how to creat practice data

apatel7905 — Thu, 31 Jan 2019 17:18:08 GMT

I am using the SAS Certification Prep Guide: Base Programming for SAS 9. I want to create practice data so that I can follow along with the examples in the book. I went to this link https://support.sas.com/content/dam/SAS/support/en/books/data/sampledata.txt for practice data but I don't know to set them up in my SAS Studio. I am using a Mac book with virtual box to run the SAS Studio. Pls help

Simply copy/paste the code into your editor and run the code. The code sets up libraries with the relevant practice data sets.
