...what did the user expect to get?
(a very strange method to assign 0...)
Another idea, to assign 10:
data cl;
set sashelp.class;
if sex="M" then age=(10 or sex="2")*10; /*else...;...; */
run;
or also interesting, to avoid changing anything:
data cl;
set sashelp.class;
if sex="M" then age=(10 or sex="2")*age; /*else...;...; */
run;
in germany we say (don't know if that is a good translation): to shake the
haunters off...
