Will "IF A AND (B or C);" output (A and B) and (A and C)?
Thank you
No, that resolves to
(A and B) OR (A and C)
Yours is equivalent to A and B and C
@apple: In everyday language, the IF condition does select "[both] observations with (A and B) and [observations with] (A and C)." In technical language (and SAS syntax), however, this is described as "(A and B) or (A and C)."
