I am using the code below to format currency values. Unfortunately, my Jupyter notebook shows a strange character Â like this:

 

£79,096,349

 

Any ideas?

 

proc print data=TransTemp NOOBS; 
		format 
		X	
		Y
		Z
		NLMNLGBP. 
		;

Not enough information, where does it show this, is it the output window?  Have you tried creating an RTF or PDF file and seeing what the output is from that, I suspect that is a tab character or something like that and you are viewing plain text.

Thanks. It is the output in the SAS Jupyter notebook. Sorry if that was not clear.

@csetzkorn It is likely that encoding specified in the sascfg_personal.py file in your saspy configuration doesn't match the SAS Session encoding in the SAS session you're connected to.The other possibility, if they do match, is that the saspy version is a bit old, as I've fixed a number of issues recently regarding encodings and translated version of SAS.

I'm happy to help you here or via opening an Issue on the saspy github site:

Either way. Just let me know!
