PROC MEANS has the option of MAXDEC which can control the number of decimal places in the output. But this option cannot exert control for the output data.
PROC MEANS DATA=work.model MEAN;
VAR _all_;
OUTPUT OUT=work.param(DROP=_NAME_ _TYPE_ _FREQ_ modelid) MEAN=;
RUN;
In this way, all variables in the outoput will have many decimal places.
Maybe I need to manually use a FORMAT statement to change this?
In that case I would just use a format statment for the VARS in PROC MEANS.
The mean should inherit the FORMAT associated with the analysis variables. Then you can have difference formats for each variable if needed.
The decimal places are inherited from the proc logistic. They are the parameter estimates as
OUTEST=. So I need to control the decimal places at the proc logistic step.In that case I would just use a format statment for the VARS in PROC MEANS.
