Hi! I am trying to apply the format procedure to the data below so that Exposure A will be “Anemic” and Exposure B “Not Anemic”. Similarly, for Gender; 1 for “Male” and 2 for “Female”. The code is working correctly for male/female, but isn't for exposure and I'm not sure why. Any help is much appreciated!
This is my code:
data Anemia;
input Exposure $ Gender $ count;
datalines;
A 1 205
A 2 129
B 1 89
B 2 86
;
run;
proc format;
value $exposurefmt
'A'='Anemic'
'B'= 'Not Anemic';
value $genderfmt
1 = 'male'
2 = 'female';
run;
proc print data=Anemia;
format exposure $exposurefmt. gender $genderfmt.;
run;
Your code worked correctly for me.
