new variable is not showing up in the data step

[IrynaDemko]

I created a new variable (gdp_change) and it is not showing up in the work library. 

data gdp_trumbull_mahoning;
set hp.final_gdp4;
format gdp2018 gdp2019 gdp_change_2018_2019 comma10.2;
keep naics ecnty fips county state gdp2018 gdp2019;
where (state = "OH") and county in ("Trumbull", "Mahoning"); 
gdp_change_2018_2019 = gdp2019 - gdp2018;
*putlog _all_;
run;

It's not in your KEEP statement so the data step doesn't keep the variable at the end. Add the variable to your KEEP statement.

Good catch!
