Hi Brandon, I think Reeza's and Jaap's comments are on point (including checking for bad variables names and the like). Please consider the nature of the comments and don't just copy and paste. The moral of the story is to know how formats work. Keep in mind that what SAS stores as data is not the same as what you see on the screen in output. You should use FORMAT to control what you see in output (and other output related things), as suggested by others above. Formats can be changed on the fly; defining a format in a dataset is only for convenience. I would avoid using the round function. See below for why you may not want to use the round function.

Hi Scott, While I echo the concerns of Sata@SAS and PGStats, I would like to know why you want only Philip in your query. It seems that Janet also qualifies as she is (one of) the oldest while being the heaviest. Are you looking for there to be a unique oldest (i.e. Janet does not qualify because Mary is also 15 and therefore there really isn't a single oldest)? My understanding of your requirement of "which student is both the heaviest and the oldest for each sex" would include both Janet and Philip. Maybe some context to your real query might help us understand your requirement. Best, Joe
