Dataset:
subj score
1 -5.3
2 -3.4
3 1.6
4 0.4
5 -6.4
6 0
How would I make a new variable (score 2) where all negative values are now missing (.)?
If you want to recode it, use an IF condition instead.
IF score<0 then score=.;
How's this?
data testSet;
input subj score;
datalines;
1 -5.3
2 -3.4
3 1.6
4 0.4
5 -6.4
6 0
;
proc format;
value formatName low-<0 = .
other = [7.2];
run;
proc sql;
select subj
,score format formatName.
from testSet;
quit;
how would i make the data into a new variable in my data set?
