Conclusion:
We conclude to create user defined formats and apply the SAS defined and user defined formats
on the SAS data sets
Q1.What is SAS Format? Explain Syntax of SAS Format.
The FORMAT statement can use standard SAS formats or user-written formats that have
been previously defined in PROC FORMAT. We use a FORMAT statement in the DATA
step to permanently associate a format with a variable. SAS changes the descriptor
information of the SAS data set that contains the variable
Syntax:

FORMAT variable-1 <...variable-n> <format> <DEFAULT=default-format>;

FORMAT variable-1 <...variable-n> format <DEFAULT=default-format>;

Q2. Explain difference between SAS format and user defined formats.
SAS Format is generally used for formatting numbers like salary, date, etc. It has a pre-
defined method to format variables. User Defined Formatting methods can be used to
represent things like country codes for example – ‘M’ for Male, ‘F’ for Female, ‘AUS’ as
Australia, etc.

Q3. Explain different types of SAS inbuilt formats with example.

Some of the built-in SAS formats that can change the display of numeric variables:
 Comma formatting for large numbers (COMMAw.d format)

Example

put @10 sales comma10.2;

Value Result
of sales

----+----1----+----2

23451.23 23,451.23

123451.234 123,451.23

 Formatting for dollar amounts (DOLLARw.d format)

Example
put @3 netpay dollar10.2;

Value Result
of netpay

----+----1----+

1254.71 $1,254.71
