------------------------------------
PROC IML;
X={2 3,
4 5};
CREATE test2 FROM x[colname={'a' 'b'}];
APPEND FROM x;
Quit;
------------------------------------
I know the above code works;
But,
How to make the code below work? Thanks
I want to have a dataset "x" as
col1 col2
1 2
NOT
col1 col2
a b
-------------code with problem -----------
---------------------------------------------------
PROC IML;
a=1;
b=2;
x={a b};
CREATE test2 FROM x[colname={'a' 'b'}];
APPEND FROM x;
Quit;
------------------------------------
there is a better forum for
IML
The expression x={a b} creates a character matrix with the values "A" and "B".
You want to use horizontal concatenation to create a matrix from a and b:
x = a || b;
For more information on concatenation, download the FREE chapter of my book Statistical Programming with SAS/IML Software from http://support.sas.com/publishing/authors/wicklin.html and look on p. 41.
