What SAS statements would you code to read an external raw
data file to a DATA step?
Answer Posted / g.jyotshna
whenever the data in .txt .dat format we can directly us
infile and input statements.
but incase of .xls
it is not possible to read excel data file directly through
infile input.
we have to use:
wizard
DDE(dynamic data exchange)
proc import (its best one)
(in projects we go for proc import only)
after reading into sas session we will go for cleaning.
