Re: Problem with dates

umberto · Posted 07-12-2018 11:51 AM

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to work on the dates of the file I've attached.
I would like to select the dates (the variable A) equal to 2015 (all the dates of the year 2015), but the code that I thought does not allow me to do it, where am I doing wrong?

code:

proc print data=x4;
where A=2015;
run;

Thank you all for your help.

but the code that I thought does not allow me to do it, where am I doing wrong?

What does that mean? Do you get an error? It's possible it read it in as a character then you'd need quotes.

But without the log, we can just guess...

If you're getting errors please post the log.

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to work on the dates of the file I've attached.
I would like to select the dates (the variable A) equal to 2015 (all the dates of the year 2015), but the code that I thought does not allow me to do it, where am I doing wrong?

code:
proc print data=x4;
where A=2015;
run;
Thank you all for your help.

twildone · Posted 07-12-2018 12:22 PM

Try this:

data x4;

input A 4. (B C D Marca) (:$30.);

Tom · Posted 07-12-2018 12:27 PM

Do you actually have values like 2015 in the data? If so then your code should work.

Or do you have actual date values?

If the later then you could use the YEAR() function to test if the date is in a particular year.

where year(A) = 2015 ;

Or if you have a datetime value you will need to get the date part first.

where year(datepart(A)) = 2015;

If you have a character variable instead then you will need use a string literal in your WHERE clause. Put watch out for leading spaces in your character variable. ' 2015' might look like '2015' when printed but will not match. The STRIP() or LEFT() function will remove leading spaces.

where strip(year)= '2015';

I thank all of the availability, forgive my imprecision (I'm a beginner);
using where year (A) = 2015; the problem has been solved;
if I understood correctly the obstacle was due to the fact that 2015 was a format, while the value saved by Sas was a date? so the date that appeared (2015,2016 and 2017) was only displayed as such, but saved with another value?

If that solved the problem then the value was stored as a SAS date value. SAS date values are the number of days from 1 Jan 1960. The desired format then displays in a more human readable form and allows a wide variety of appearance options without having to add variables. The format can be used to create groups based on the format, such as year. or yyq or monname. or .. With Proc Format you can create custom Date (or time or datetime) displays as well.

Note that Time and Datetime values are the number of seconds.
