Hallo community, I am writing to you because I have this problem.
I want to make the Cartesian product of two datasets where each contains 6 lines (the final db must have 36 lines) through a datastep (and not proc sql). Could you give me a hand?

The two datasets are as follows

data scoperto_1;
input Scoperto $;
datalines;
0.1
0.2
0.3
0.5
1.0
2.0
;
run;

data limite_1;
input limite $;
datalines;
40
50
60
70
80
90
;

run;

 

I want to get a single dataset with all combinations of "limite" and "scoperto" (36 rows) through a datastep (and NOT proc sql).

Thanks in advance

max
