I have a dataset with
X: Character Variable
Y: Numeric Variable
I want to obtain the dataset with
X = a or b AND Y= 1
how do I write the code?
I understand that if I use "where" both variables must be of the same type (both character or both numeric).
Thank you
WHERE just want a valid boolean expression.
where (X = 'a' or X='b') AND (Y= 1) ;
WHERE just want a valid boolean expression.
where (X = 'a' or X='b') AND (Y= 1) ;
Alternative code,
Where X in ('a','b') and Y=1;
Thanks,
jag
Alternately u can use:
Data want;
set have;
if x in ("a","b") then output;
where y=1;
run;
Hi ..
You can use any condition, which is provided by tom, jegadish and karthik. and also you can use proc sql to print the same result. where if you use the proc sql, it should take less time to execute the code rather than using data step. Thanks, yaswanth
proc sql;
select * from sasuser.admit
where actlevel in ('HIGH','LOW')
and fee gt 100;
quit;
Thanks, yaswanth
