Is there simple base SAS programming that read in the following JSON type data. See below example.
{
Tenure: 2 spend: 5
}
{
tenure:6 products:4 region:PQ spend:7
}
{
Credit score:100 region:ont tenure:7 country:can
}
{
Credit score:50 country:US
}
{
Tenure:5 region:US spend:100 creditscore:300
}
Which version of SAS are you running?
I notice some "Credit score" have blanks in it, but the last one is not . which one is real world ?
Assuming there is no blank in it.
NOTE: if you have SAS9.4 M4 , best choice is libname + JSON engine.
data x;
infile '/folders/myfolders/xxxx.json' lrecl=300000 dlm='}: ';
input x : $200. @@;
run;
data want;;
merge x x(firstobs=2 rename=(x=value));
if x=:'{' then do;x=substr(x,2); id+1;end;
if mod(_n_,2)=1;
run;
proc print noobs;run;
