Abstract
The ability to manipulate data in the Base SAS software plays a very important role in the preparation of data for data analysis. This chapter presents tips directly related to changing the way your data looks without changing the data itself. You’ll learn essential techniques on the different ways of subsetting data, reshaping columns of data, and sending output to SAS data sets.
