ERROR: One or more variables are missing or freq or weight is zero on every observation.

I keep getting this error "ERROR: One or more variables are missing or freq or weight is zero on every observation." and I am not sure why.

Please post your full log. Your code worked fine when i tested

data car;

@novinosrin  I still get the same error even when I copy and pasted what you did.

I attached the full log.

By any chance, is there a possibility of TAB characters between values?

Can you try EXPANDTABS  option

data car;
infile cards expandtabs;
input veh mpg @@;
cards;
