DO Loop

[deleted_user]

Hi All,

I use the code:-

/*NESTED DO*/
Data Earn;
do year=1 to 2;
capital+2000;
do month=1 to 3;
interest = capital*(.075/12);
capital+interest;
end;
end;
run;


Output: Interest=25.55 & Capital=4113.91

How is this output reached?Kindly suggest.

You must code an OUTPUT statement. A SAS DATA step does have an implicit output operation but since you are in your DO/END loop technique, the only output would occur when the last statement is executed.
