hi   Im trying to parse my string into 3 parts, and the delimiter is "//". Example of my string: ItemA=Andy//Male//Cat. However, I have some strings that have "/" as part of the string, and I'm unable to parse them properly, e.g.: Bac/h//Male//Dog   I've used the following function but it doesnt parse properly. I've tried to replace Q with M but it doesnt work too.Appreciate any help pls. Thanks.   name = scan(ItemA,1,"//",'Q'); gender =scan(ItemA,2,"//",'Q'); animal =scan(ItemA,2,"//",'Q');     ...

0down votefavorite   I've got a dataset with variables TYPE and FREQ. I'm trying to test on SAS if my variable FREQ follows a uniform distribution by variable = TYPE TYPE FREQ A 0 A 2 A 0 A 4 A 5 A 5 B 10 B 0 B 4 B 5 B 3 B 1   How should the SAS code work? I know I need to use proc univariate on beta distribution (1,1), but I cant get it to work if I want to test for uniform distribution by the 'TYPE' variable. Also, I want to use the range(freq)+2 as my sigma and min(freq)-1 as my theta parameters. How do I get it defined in my sas code?   PROC SQL NOPRINT; SELECT RANGE(freq)+2 INTO :SIGMA FROM dataset group by TYPE; QUIT; PROC SQL NOPRINT; SELECT MIN(freq)-1 INTO :THETA FROM dataset group by TYPE; QUIT;   PROC UNIVARIATE DATA = dataset BY type; VAR freq; HISTOGRAM freq / NOPLOT BETA ( W=1 L=1 COLOR=CX4B0082 SIGMA=&SIGMA THETA=&THETA ALPHA=1 BETA=1) ; ; RUN; QUIT; Appreciate any help please thanks! ...
