I have a numeric column like this-
Col A
100%
100%
0%
0%
100%
0%
I am trying to convert it into character format for which I am using the following code -
put(t1."Col A"n, 10.)
From which I am getting this output -
Col A
1
1
0
0
1
0
Why am I getting this output?
The PERCENT. format multiplies the value by 100 before displaying it. The raw value of 100 % is always 1.
What string do you expect from a value like this:
data have;
input col_a;
format col_a percent6.;
datalines;
1
