这是我正在编写的宏,我想查看给定的数据集,并将每个字段(列)名称作为对信息数据集的观察写入。
这就是我所拥有的
%macro go_macro(data);
/*get the list of field names from the dictionary*/
proc sql noprint;
select distinct name into :columns separated by ' '
from dictionary.columns
where memname = "%upcase(%scan(&data, -1))" and libname = "%upcase(%scan(&data, 1))" and type = "char"
;
quit;
/*now loop through this list of fieldnames*/
%let var_no = 1;
%let var = %scan(&columns, &var_no, ' ');
%do %while (&var ne);
/*here is where I want to write the fieldname to an observation*/
fname = "&var";
output;
%let var_no = %eval(&var_no +1);
%let var = %scan(&columns, &var_no, ' ');
%end;
%mend;
/*execute the code*/
data bdqa.accounts_info;
%go_macro(braw.accounts)
run;
这给了我
[MPRINT] Parsing Base DataServer

ERROR: Parsing exception - aborting
ERROR: DS-00274 : Could not parse base DataServer code: Encountered " <ALPHANUM> "fname "" at line 5, column 9.
Was expecting one of:
<EOF>
";" ...
"*" ...
"data" ...
"proc" ...
(and 9 more)
while
尽管
data mytest;
do i = 1 to 5;
fname = 'hello world';
output;
end;
keep fname;
run;
是完全合法的。
以下代码
%macro char_freqs(data=);
/*get the different variables*/
proc sql noprint;
select distinct name into :columns separated by ' '
from dictionary.columns
where memname = "%upcase(%scan(&data, -1))" and libname = "%upcase(%scan(&data, 1))" and type = "char"
;
quit;
/*now get the distinct values for each of the variables*/
%let var_no = 1;
%let var = %scan(&columns, &var_no, ' ');
%do %while (&var ne);
proc freq data=&data;
tables &var/out=&var._freq;
run;
%let var_no = %eval(&var_no +1);
%let var = %scan(&columns, &var_no, ' ');
%end;
%mend;
%char_freqs(data=macros.businesses)
也有效 - PROC FREQ 是允许的。
