Answer / dileepb

BOTH WE CAN USE:
The DATA _NULL_ step is a reporting tool that offers extreme flexibility. Because it uses the
power of the DATA step, this methodology enables the user to generate reports in almost any
form.
In PROC REPORT,
the compute block, with its access to the majority of the SAS language elements, such as logic
processing, functions, and assignment statements, takes on some of the role of the DATA
_NULL_ step.
