Which time span is used to interpret two-digit year values if the YEARCUTOFF= option is set to 1950?

technology programming languages

  1. 1950-2049

  2. 1950-2050

  3. 1949-2050

  4. 1950-2000

Show answer
Correct Option: A

AI Explanation

To answer this question, we need to understand the concept of the YEARCUTOFF option in SAS.

In SAS, the YEARCUTOFF option is used to interpret two-digit year values. It specifies the cutoff year for interpreting two-digit years as four-digit years.

If the YEARCUTOFF option is set to 1950, it means that any two-digit year values from 50 to 99 will be interpreted as 1950 to 1999, and any two-digit year values from 00 to 49 will be interpreted as 2000 to 2049.

The correct answer is A) 1950-2049. This time span is used to interpret two-digit year values if the YEARCUTOFF option is set to 1950.

The default statistics produced by the MEANS procedure are n-count, mean, minimum, maximum, and

technology programming languages

  1. median

  2. range

  3. standard deviation

  4. standard error of the mean

Show answer
Correct Option: C

AI Explanation

To answer this question, we need to understand the default statistics produced by the MEANS procedure.

The MEANS procedure in statistical software, such as SAS or SPSS, calculates descriptive statistics for a given variable or set of variables. These statistics provide a summary of the data distribution.

The default statistics produced by the MEANS procedure are:

  1. n-count: This represents the number of non-missing values for the variable(s) being analyzed.
  2. mean: This represents the average value of the variable(s) being analyzed.
  3. minimum: This represents the smallest value observed in the variable(s).
  4. maximum: This represents the largest value observed in the variable(s).

The correct answer is C) standard deviation.

Option A) median: The median is not a default statistic produced by the MEANS procedure. The median represents the middle value in a set of data, which is not included in the default statistics.

Option B) range: The range is not a default statistic produced by the MEANS procedure. The range represents the difference between the maximum and minimum values, which are already included in the default statistics.

Option C) standard deviation: The standard deviation is a measure of the dispersion or spread of the data. It is not included in the default statistics produced by the MEANS procedure.

Option D) standard error of the mean: The standard error of the mean measures the variability of sample means from different samples. It is not included in the default statistics produced by the MEANS procedure.

Therefore, the correct answer is C) standard deviation.

Which statement will limit a PROC MEANS analysis to the variables Boarded, Transfer, and Deplane

technology programming languages

  1. by boarded transfer deplane;

  2. class boarded transfer deplane;

  3. output boarded transfer deplane;

  4. var boarded transfer deplane;

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

To limit a PROC MEANS analysis to the variables Boarded, Transfer, and Deplane, we need to specify the variables in the procedure statement.

Option A "by boarded transfer deplane" is used to specify the variables used in the BY statement for the procedure. This is not used to limit the variables in the analysis.

Option B "class boarded transfer deplane" is used to classify variables. This option is not used to limit the variables in the analysis.

Option C "output boarded transfer deplane" is used to specify the variables to be included in the output dataset. This option is not used to limit the variables in the analysis.

Option D "var boarded transfer deplane" is used to specify the variables to be analyzed in the PROC MEANS statement. This option is correct as it limits the analysis to the specified variables.

Therefore, the answer is: D. var boarded transfer deplane;

Which of the following statements is true regarding BY-group processing

technology programming languages

  1. BY variables must be either indexed or sorted

  2. Summary statistics are computed for BY variables

  3. BY-group processing is preferred when you are categorizing data that contains few variables

  4. BY-group processing overwrites your data set with the newly grouped observations

Show answer
Correct Option: A

  3. TRIM(LEFT(X1))||TRIM(LEFT(X2))||TRIM(LEFT(X3))||TRIM(LEFT(X4))

  4. TRIM(LEFT(X1))||SP||TRIM(LEFT(X2))||SP||TRIM(LEFT(X3))||SP||TRIM(LEFT(X4))

Show answer
Correct Option: D
