Approximately what date is represented by SAS date value of 730..

Answer / sheetal

In SAS Dates stored in numeric format, it starts from 1st
Jan 1960, and 1st jan 1960 consider as day # 0. So even
though 1960 was a leap year #days are 365 for year 1961 and
365 for 1961. Which means 365+365=730 nothing but last day
of 1961 - 31st Dec 1961.
