Hello
I am using format 8.4
What is the reason that I see only 3 digits after point and not 4 digits?
For example: 9581.1728 I see as 9581.173
What is the way to see 4 digits?
data have;
format x_numeric 8.4;
input x_numeric;
cards;
9581.1728
9791.5262
1366.1106
;
Run;
4 digits left of the dot, the dot, and 3 digits after the dot add up to 8. That's why you need 9.4.
With possible negative values, you would need 10.
To see a number like 9581.1728 you need 9 spaces, not 8.
