Hi sir, can you please do a quick review on the double trailing @@, the single one @ and the forward slash /

You used It in an example...but I just want a quick recap...im having a hard time understanding them...

Sincerely,

SAS programming 2 last chapter goes in further details. Go through it and if you still have questions, we will take it in class. These things are not used very frequently in day to day programming, so don't waste too much time on it. As long as you know the basics it should be fine.

@@ repeating values

@ at end of input statement will hold the input record and won't advance to next line in raw data.

@ before a variable name, gives the column name at which sas should read its value in raw data.

/ moves to the next line in raw data but keeps on reading value in PDV without outputting values to output dataset.
