Creation and Display of Instream Data

The script uses a DATA STEP to define a data structure with the variables 'cars', 'mpg', 'cyl', 'disp', 'hp', and 'drat'. The data for these variables is then read directly from the 'cards' section. Once the dataset is created, PROC PRINT is used to display the formatted content of the 'instream_mtcars' dataset in the log or default output.

Data Analysis

Type : CREATION_INTERNE

The data is defined directly in the SAS script via the 'cards;' instruction within a DATA STEP, which means it is created and loaded into memory during script execution.

DATA STEP Data

Explanation :
This DATA STEP block creates the 'instream_mtcars' dataset. It uses the 'informat' statement to specify the format of the 'cars' variable and 'input' to define the order and type of variables. The 'cards;' statement indicates that the following lines contain the data to be read directly into the dataset.
