Could anyone please explain why this code splits the character variable
WU411 into WU$ and 11?
Thanks!
DATA CURVDATA;
INPUT CURVE $5. CP1 - CP7;
CARDS;
WU411 0.00 1.20 2.41 3.61 4.82 6.02 7.23
;
PROC PRINT DATA = CURVDATA;
this is the output:
OBS CURVE CP1 CP2 CP3 CP4 CP5 CP6 CP7
1 WU4 11 0 1.2 2.41 3.61 4.82 6.02
