put statement to sas file

[tom12122]

Is there a possibility to direct put statement to sas file ?

I need to export i

to sas file:

Sample code:

data COM;

   array x[5] $3 ('a' 'b' 'c' 'd' 'e');

   array c[3] $3;

   array i[3];

   n=dim(x);

   k=dim(i);

   i[1]=0;

   ncomb=comb(n,k);    /* The one extra call goes back */

   do j=1 to ncomb+1;  /* to the first combination. */

      call allcombi(n, k, of i

, add, remove);

      do h=1 to k;

         c=x[i];

      end;

      *put @4 j= @10 'i= ' i

+3 'c= ' c

+3 add= remove=;

      put c

;

    output ;

   end;

run;

PUT output can be directed to a text file by adding a FILE statement in the data step;

Data com;

     file "put the name of your output file here";

<other code>

run;

I'm not sure what you mean by "SAS file" as SAS uses a fair number of different file types: data set, catalog, transport, programs as well as generating output in many more formats.
