Solved: Re: Extracting YYYY from title and adding it as a value in data set

theriff29 · Posted 11-16-2019 04:01 AM

Hi Kurt,

I see you are online.

I am in need of a breakthrough here for something I am working on urgently... I am trying to extract the YYYY form the the title of each text file and add that value to the variable year as seen in my code below..... I have over 200 text files with the titles format yobYYYY as titles e.g. yob1880.txt.......yob2010.txt.. yob2019.txt and the value I am interested is the YYYY value to import them into my data set accordingly.

This is my code so far, I have been able to create the data set with the dummy variable year so even though it show just a dot in the value , good result so far but still trying to figure out how to add the YYYY extracted from each text file title accordingly..

/* *

title 'Baby Names in the USA since 1880'; /* Title of the Dataset */

filename pwd 'C:\Users\Roger\Desktop\BabyNames'; /* Directory where the text files are stored*/

/* Create the Baby Names dataset */
data babyNames;

/* ... using input from all the text files which have a delimiter , to split the fields*/

year = 1880 /* this is the attribute where I want to add the value of the text file title i.e. YYYY from yobYYYY title*/

number /* number of times this name was given in that year'*/
;
label
year = 'Year of Birth'
name = 'Name'
sex = 'Gender'
number = 'Occurences'
;
run;

proc print
data=babyNames ;

(obs = 500);
run;

Why did you comment my length statement? As I told you previously, the variable would default to a length of 8, cutting off most of the filenames.

Use the filename= option in your infile statement to retrieve the name of the file that is currently read.

data babyNames;
length
  fname $200
  /* set length of other variables as needed, or they will default to 8 */
;
/* ... using input from all the text files which have a delimiter , to split the fields*/
infile pwd(*.txt) DLM=',' filename=fname;

/* after the input */
year = input(substr(scan(scan(fname,-1,'\'),1,'.'),4,4),4.);

I am not sure if I am doing something wrong, newbie in SAS coding...

The year field is still giving a . on the table output, still not able to not to extract it......

anything I missed in the code ? See above

This is a sample of a dataset among then other attached......the title are always yobYYYY.txt

Kurt_Bremser · Posted 11-16-2019 06:24 AM

The calculation of year has to come after the whole input statement, not immediately after the input keyword.

input
  name        /* category, baby name */
  sex         /* category, gender of baby */
  number      /* number of times this name was given in that year*/
;
year = input(substr(scan(scan(fname,-1,'\'),1,'.'),4,4),4.);

Please post the log if you have further problems (copy/paste into {i} subwindow).

Hi Kurt,

No luck yet....

The function year = input(substr(scan(scan(fname,-1,'\'),1,'.'),4,4),4.); doesn't even show as coloured in my SAS code , could it be the version I am using SAS 9.4

the text file tile format is yobYYYY.txt and the value I am trying to extract is only YYYY to add into the year column respectively.

See code below , log output and output resultes attached

Why did you comment my length statement? As I told you previously, the variable would default to a length of 8, cutting off most of the filenames.

Hi Kurt,

Just to thank you once again on your solution , really appreciate it. I managed to import the data into SAS

My apologies for discarding/commenting the length statement , didn't understand the importance of it, I thought SAS was predisposed to import the value regardless of the length.... I get it now it sets it at 8 characters unless you assign the appropriate length yourself.... still on a learning curve.

Thank you again....... This is the final code for the next person who will be in the same kind of situation.

/* set length of other variables as needed, or they will default to 8 */
