No output or error in log

somira · Posted 10-02-2022 03:39 PM

I am new to SAS and programming and I have been working with SAS for more than a month.

But this week , my SAS code has neither an error or any output. The results tab is empty too. These are some of the warnings that i saw in the log:

"The quoted string currently being processed has become more than 262 bytes long. You might have unbalanced quotation marks "

The meaning of an identifier after a quoted string might change in a future SAS release. Inserting white space

between a quoted string and the succeeding identifier is recommended.

Can somebody suggest what's wrong

Thanks

Show us the entire log, down to (and including) the part where it says: The quoted string currently being processed has become more than 262 bytes long. You might have unbalanced quotation marks

Your unbalanced quotes problem starts before the log you have posted. Follow @Kurt_Bremser 's instructions and start a new SAS session, then try running your program again after checking for unbalanced quotes.

I have a suspicion that your issue partially revolves around the MACRO code and the use of this

131 *1.6 Create a macro named class with one parameter category. In the macro, use %IF &category =Gender;
132 *%THEN %DO; PROC MEANS for the data final to calculate the mean of the variable f1 by &category.;
133 *%ELSE %IF &category =ClassAge %THEN %DO; PROC MEANS for the data final to calculate the mean of the;
134 * variable f2 by &category.;

The macro processor does not treat comments in code that in the * <some text> ; form as the rest of the SAS code.

You should either use %* <some text>; style in line macro comments or the /* */ form of comments.

When things involving macros misbehave part of the debugging process is to see what the macro processor is generating. That is accomplished by setting system options MPRINT and possibly SYMBOLGEN and MLOGIC.

So in addition to starting a fresh session before running the code involving the macro add this line before the macro execution:

Options mprint;

This will have the log include the text generated by the macro.

Turn off using:

options nomprint;

The Symbolgen option turns on more details about how macro variables are resolved and may be needed with some complex variable creation, Mlogic reports a bit more about how logical comparisons in the macro are resolved.

This is also very strange and will cause all kinds of trouble.

156 *1.7Call the macro %class(category=Gender);
157 %MACRO class(category=Gender);
158
159 *------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
159 ! ----------------------------------;
160
161 *1.8Call the macro %class(category=ClassAge);
162 %MACRO class(category=ClassAge);

First you are calling the %CLASS() macro in the middle of a statement comment. So the code it generates will become part of the statement comment up to the end of the first statement the macro generates.

Second you are nesting to attempts to DEFINE the macro CLASS inside of each other. I suspect you meant to actually call the macro CLASS there and not re-define it.

You probably want something more like this:

/*
 *1.7Call the macro %class(category=Gender);
*/
%class(category=Gender);

/*
 *1.8Call the macro %class(category=ClassAge);
*/
%class(category=ClassAge);

You have multiple %MACRO statements without corresponding %MENDs. This will also cause the "unbalanced" message.

You may have confused macro definitions and macro calls. %MACRO is only needed for defining macros, but NOT for calling them.

Start a new session and review ALL your code for unbalanced quotes or other unbalanced stuff (like a %macro definition without a terminating %mend) before you submit it.
