Question 51

The following SAS program is submitted:

Which statement is true about the output data set?

    Correct Answer: C

    The variable CharEmpid is assigned the value of EmpId. Since the statement 'length EmpId $6;' specifies that EmpId is a character variable with length 6, CharEmpid will also be a character variable. The program will not fail to execute in this scenario.
