I need to work on a huge dataset. The first thing is to derive some new variables based on existing variables.

So I want to pick the first 100 or 200 records into a small dataset to test my code.

I know I can use ranuni() function to select a small number of records from the original datasets.

But is there a proc sql Or data set function can do this?

Thanks,
