I know the following code works well, but does anyone have alternative suggestions to write a more efficient code that replaces zeros with missing values? 


Here is a sample dataset: 

data work.sample;
 infile cards expandtabs truncover;
input 	ID	shrout	shrout1	shrout2;
cards;
26232409	0	2	50997000
26232409	0	3	50997000
26232409	53598	0	50997000
10623630	10097	2	0
5856168			.		.	.
;
run;

Here is the code:

data work.sample;
	modify work.sample;
	array vars{*} shrout shrout1 shrout2; 
	do i = 1 to dim(vars);
        if vars{i}=0 then call missing(vars{i});
	end;
run;
