when I run the below code again and again the dataset is the same but I want the numbers to be randomly generated
data obs;
do i= 1 to 8;
x= round(100* ranuni(123),1);
y= round(100* ranuni(789),1);
output;
end;
run;
Change the SEED.
Using a SEED <= 0 will generate different results (using time of day as the seed).
Change the seed to the RanUNI function or use a different random number generation method.
