SAS Array Execution

[krishnaarrora]

When we define array, what will happen to that array after dataset is executed, like will it be there in the memory or something else?

An array provides a convenient way to access variables within a particular DATA step. The array itself does not persist after that step ends. The variables in the array might or might not persist depending on which variables are dropped or kept.
