A00-215 Exam Dumps : SAS Certified Associate: Programming Fundamentals Using SAS 9.4

The report shown is a cross-tabulation of 'Region' by 'Product'. The FREQ Procedure indicates that PROC FREQ has been used, and the presence of 'Frequency', 'Percent', 'Row Percent', and 'Column Percent' suggests that a cross tabulation (or contingency table) has been requested. The correct code for this output would include the tables statement to specify the two variables ('Region' and 'Product') with an asterisk between them, which indicates a request for a cross-tabulation of these two categorical variables, and the crosslist option to display the table in a cross-tabulated list format. Therefore, option D is the correct answer:

proc freq data=sashelp.shoes;

tables region*product / crosslist;

run;

Options A and C use the order=freq option incorrectly, as this option would order the table by frequency counts rather than providing a cross-tabulation. Option B is missing the crosslist option needed to produce the cross-tabulated format.

The code creates two datasets, preteen and teen, based on the age variable from the sashelp.class dataset. The if statement checks each observation, and if the age is less than 13, the observation is written to the preteen dataset; otherwise, the observation is written to the teen dataset.

From the provided frequency table, we can see that there are 7 observations with ages less than 13 (2 for age 11 and 5 for age 12), so the preteen dataset will have 7 observations. Since the sashelp.class dataset has a total of 19 observations, the remaining 12 observations (19 total - 7 preteen = 12 teen) will be written to the teen dataset.

Thus, the answer is: B. preteen will have 7 observations and teen will have 12 observations.

The FORMAT statement in the DATA step assigns formats to variables for the SAS dataset being created. In the code provided, MSRP is given the dollar12. format and Invoice is given the dollar10. format. However, during the PROC PRINT step, MSRP is reassigned to the comma12.2 format. The format specified in the most recent PROC step or DATA step that executes is the one that is used in the output.

Therefore, the format for MSRP in the PROC PRINT output will be comma12.2, making the answer: B. Comma12.2
