OUTPUT Statement

The NPAR1WAY Procedure

OUTPUT Statement

OUTPUT < OUT=SAS-data-set > < options > ;

The OUTPUT statement creates a SAS data set containing statistics computed by PROC NPAR1WAY. The OUTPUT data set can include any statistics that are requested in the PROC NPAR1WAY statement. Statistics are output for each analysis variable specified in the VAR statement. For more information, see the section "Output Data Set".

Note that you can use the Output Delivery System (ODS) to create a SAS data set from any piece of PROC NPAR1WAY output. For more information, see Chapter 14, "Using the Output Delivery System."

You can specify the following options in the OUTPUT statement.

OUT=SAS-data-set: names the output data set. If you omit the OUT= option, the data set is named DATAn, where n is the smallest integer that makes the name unique.

options

specifies the statistics you want in the new data set. The options are identical to those used in the PROC NPAR1WAY statement to request analyses. Table 42.4 shows the available options. When you specify one of these options in the OUTPUT statement, all statistics from that analysis are included in the output data set. See the section "Output Data Set" for a list of the output data set statistics corresponding to each option.

If you do not specify any statistics options in the OUTPUT statement, then the output data set includes statistics from all analyses specified in the PROC NPAR1WAY statement.
