13. A raw data file is listed below:
RANCH,1250,2,1,Sheppard Avenue,"$64,000"
SPLIT,1190,1,1,Rand Street,"$65,850"
CONDO,1400,2,1.5,Market Street,"80,050"
TWOSTORY,1810,4,3,Garris Street,"$107,250"
RANCH,1500,3,3,Kemble Avenue,"$86,650"
SPLIT,1615,4,3,West Drive,"94,450"
SPLIT,1305,3,1.5,Graham Avenue,"$73,650"
The following SAS program is submitted using the raw data file as input:
data work.condo_ranch;
infile 'file-specification' dsd;
input style $ @;
if style = 'CONDO' or style = 'RANCH' then
input sqfeet bedrooms baths street $ price : dollar10.;
run;
How many observations does the WORK.CONDO_RANCH data set contain?
A. 0
B. 3
C. 5
D. 7
ANS:D
Reason being statement "input style $ @;" will hold input stream until next input statement.Program will read next input statement only if style is condo or ranch. But even when style is notcondo or ranch when run statement is executed output will be written with just style variablehaving value and all others will be missing.
