Hi Everyone, 

 

So I'm learning SAS in my analytics class and I'm having trouble dropping a value. I'm trying to determine the number of dependents per employee based on gender by each marital status. Though I cant include the 0 values that are in the dependents column in my calculation.

 

Here's a snippet of the table. 

 Gender Dependents

M0
F2
F1

 

The code I'm using brings up the table that I'm looking for, though I can't figure out how to exclude the 0 value for the Dependents column.

 

proc means data=orion.salariesl;
	var Dependents;
	class Employee_Gender Marital_Status;
run;

Add a where clause:

  where DEPENDENTS ne 0;
