Contrariwise, continued Tweedledee, if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isnt, it
aint. Thats logic.

3.1 Creating and Redefining Variables
If someone were to compile a list of the most popular things to do with SAS software, creating and redefining variables
would surely be near the top. Fortunately, SAS is flexible and uses a common sense approach to these tasks. You create
and redefine variables with assignment statements using this basic form:
variable = expression;
On the left side of the equal sign is a variable name, either new or old. On the right side of the equal sign may appear a
constant, another variable, or a mathematical expression. Here are examples of these basic types of assignment
statements:
Type of expression Assignment statement
numeric constant Qwerty = 10;
character constant Qwerty = ten;
a variable Qwerty = OldVar;
addition Qwerty = OldVar + 10;
subtraction Qwerty = OldVar - 10;
multiplication Qwerty = OldVar * 10;
division Qwerty = OldVar / 10;
exponentiation Qwerty = OldVar ** 10;
Whether the variable Qwerty is numeric or character depends on the expression that defines it. When the expression is
numeric, Qwerty will be numeric; when it is character, Qwerty will be character.
When deciding how to interpret your expression, SAS follows the standard mathematical rules of precedence: SAS
performs exponentiation first, then multiplication and division, followed by addition and subtraction. You can use
parentheses to override that order. Here are two similar SAS statements showing that a couple of parentheses can mak
