Buongiorno,

ho creato la seguente macro ma non riesco a capire l'errore 🙄:

- trova le variabili nel DB "my_data" e poi esegue delle differenze e dei "lag" ma non risco a fargli prendere i nomi delle variabili :

my_data:

PaigeMiller · Posted 12-17-2021 06:58 AM

First, you say there's an error, but you don't show the error. Please run this command, then run your macro again.

options mprint;

Then, show us the LOG from your run of the macro. We need to see the LOG and not the code itself. We need to see the ENTIRE log for the run of this macro, all of it, every single line, not selected parts of the log.

Please format the log to make it readable. To do this, you copy the log as text (not a screen capture) and paste it into the window that appears when you click on the </> icon (see below). DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP.

Lastly, please go back to your original post and edit it to provide a meaningful title that give a brief description of the problem, instead of a meaningless word ROUTINE.

We're going to try to help you, but you have to help us by performing the tasks mentioned above.

Excuse me Paige Miller , I accetted a solution.... I have done everithing well?

PaigeMiller · Posted 12-17-2021 07:10 AM

Thank you for changing the title of your post. This helps everyone find posts that can be helpful to them.

Why did you accept the solution? I didn't solve anything. Unless telling you to use

options mprint;

helped you figure out what was wrong, in which case you should probably mention that.

You should be able to change my answer above from correct to not correct, there should be a button you can click on to make this happen. Nevertheless, please continue the discussion in this thread.

You can't use an IF statement, unless it is inside a DATA step. I don't know if that's what you intended to do here, in which case you need a DATA statement, and probably a SET statement, before this IF.

Can you show us a simple example of code that does what you are trying to do, that doesn't contain macros? Can you write working code as if there was only one iteration, and so the macro loop isn't needed? Show us this code without macros that works on the first iteration only and does what you want.

In the version of the program that you showed a few minutes ago, there is a DATA statement and a SET statement. In the code you started this thread with, there is no DATA statement and no SET statement, and the code needs to have these.

Ciao, ho capito, io stavo tentando di fare un programma nuovo e diverso, quello che ti ho mandato è il programma vecchio che mi restituisce un risultato che è il mio obiettivo. Nel nuovo programma non riesco a fare la routine ed ad inserire le variabili.

Tom · Posted 12-17-2021 08:21 AM

You have an error in the first SQL step of the macro. Fix that first and then see if there are still errors.

proc sql;
     select name into :my_name1 - :my_name__
     from work.my_data;
quit;

The upper bound target macro variable name does not end with a numeric suffix.

Since you do not need to specify the upper bound just remove it.

Also your probably do not want to also print all of the names to the output destination(s) so add the NOPRINT option.

Also PROC SQL will count the number of names it found, so need to do extra work to count the names.

proc sql noprint;
   select name into :my_name1 - 
     from work.my_data
  ;
%let count=&sqlobs;
quit;

Tecla1 · Posted 12-17-2021 08:28 AM

Ciao, il mio problema è soprattutto come inserire queste variabili nel programma che deve "girare" quante volte sono le variabili in "MY_name":

proc sql;
    select name into :my_name1 - :my_name__
    from work.my_data;
quit;
 
%put My name 1 is: &my_name1.;
%put My name 2 is: &my_name2.;
 
proc sql; 
select count(name) as NUMBER into :count from work.my_data;
quit;

data xx;

		%local j;
		
		%do j=1 %to &count.;

		if prog=&j.+1 then 


retain B_&my_name1. D_&my_name1. P_&my_name1.;
B_&my_name1. = lag(&my_name1.);
D_&my_name1. = dif(&my_name1.);
P_&my_name1.= D_&my_name1../B_&my_name1.;
format P_&my_name1. percent.2;
if D_&my_name1. = . then D_&my_name1. = 0;
		%end;
run;

Tom · Posted 12-17-2021 08:55 AM

The SAS compiler does not start building the data step until after the macro processor has finished generating all of the statements for the data step.

The key thing with macro code is to know what code you want to generate.

For this problem it looks like you need to generate code like:

B_Age = lag(Age);
D_Age = coalesce(dif(Age),0);
P_Age = divide(D_Age,B_Age);
format P_Age percent7.2;

So structure your macro code to generate that code.

%macro test(dsin,dsout,namelist);
%local count j namelist name ;

proc sql noprint;
 select nliteral(name) into :namelist separated by '|'
   from &namelist

Let's generate some test inputs and call the macro.

data test;
  set sashelp.class;
  keep _numeric_;
run;
proc contents data=test noprint out=contents(keep=name); 
run;
options mprint;
%test(dsin=sashelp.class,dsout=xx,namelist=contents)

Resutls:

363   options mprint;
364   %test(dsin=sashelp.class,dsout=xx,namelist=contents)
MPRINT(TEST):   proc sql noprint;
MPRINT(TEST):   select nliteral(name) into :namelist separated by '|' from contents ;
MPRINT(TEST):   quit;
