advanced predictive modeling EM dmnn41 course data is blank

[nathanh]

The data source in library dmnn41 is blank in virtual lab. Someone from SAS needs to fix this. D:\workshop\winsas\EM_projects\dmnn41\datasource

Hi:

  There's a difference between the location where you save the projects (down in the EM_Projects folder) and the location where the data are stored. When I look in the first demo in the course, here's what I see:

  When I look in the location where you are supposed to define the library, the location for the data files are provided as shown above:

D:\Workshop\Winsas\DMNN51\ -- you can see the data are in that location as provided in the first demo:

At the top of the table of contents for the course, you are told to use DMNN51 as the name of the folder, as shown below:

  On the image, on a fresh image, the folders are as created at the beginning of class. Here's the EM_Projects folder when class starts:

  I can find the course data in the DMNN51 folder on the image, in the location specified by the instructor in the demo (using DMNN51 instead of DMNN41),

  In the first demo in Lesson 1, the instructor explains that students are using the DECAY data source. Remember that you were told to look for the DMNN51 folder and I see the DECAY data source in that folder, as shown below:

Then if you go to Part 2 of the demo, you are told to open a program from the DMNN41 folder but all you need to do is look in the DMNN51 folder to find the program file as shown below:

I hope this clarifies that the data and programs for class are stored in THIS location:

D:\Workshop\Winsas\DMNN51\

So, that is the location where you need to define your library and from which you need to open programs.
