Multiply matrix and vector with proc iml

[x2PSx]

Hello,

I am trying to multiply a matrix and a vector with proc iml, but I never used it,.

Basically, I already have the two datasets that I need, one MATRIX and one VECTOR.

I simply want the resulting vector of the multiplication of MATRIX*VECTOR in a new dataset with one variable named RESULT.

Here's an introductory resource to PROC IML that I hope you'll find helpful. Rick also publishes "The DO Loop" blog for SAS.

In the future, I suggest you post IML questions to the Analytics / SAS/IML area. The Enterprise Guide area tends to get questions about the EG interface, and the IML folks don't tend to watch it.

Better post is at IML forum, since it is a IML question.

data matrix;
 set sashelp.class;
 keep age weight height;
run;
data vector;
 do vector=1 to 3;
  output;
 end;
run;

proc iml;
use matrix;
read all var _num_ into matrix;
close;
use vector;
read all var {vector};
close;

result=matrix*vector;

create result var {result};
append;
close;
quit;
