To answer this question, you need to understand how to format a title in SAS using the %sysfunc function to manipulate the current date.
Let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:
Option A) title "Report for %sysfunc(left(%sysfunc(today(),worddate.)))";
This option is incorrect because it uses an unnecessary nested %sysfunc function. The left function should be applied directly to the result of %sysfunc(today(),worddate.) to left justify it.
Option B) title "Report for %sysfunc(left(today(), worddate.))";
This option is incorrect because it does not use the proper syntax for the %sysfunc function. The %sysfunc function should be used with a specific SAS function, such as date. or left..
Option C) title "Report for %sysfunc(left(%qsysfunc(today(), worddate.)))";
This option is correct because it uses the %sysfunc function with the left function to left justify the result of %qsysfunc(today(), worddate.). The %qsysfunc function is used to resolve any potential macro quoting issues.
Option D) title "Report for %left(today(), worddate.))";
This option is incorrect because it does not use the %sysfunc function to manipulate the current date. The left function should be used within the %sysfunc function to left justify the result.
The correct answer is C. This option is correct because it properly uses the %sysfunc function with the left function and the %qsysfunc function to left justify the result of %qsysfunc(today(), worddate.).
