How to lie with a simulation
In my article on Buffon's needle experiment, I showed a graph that converges fairly nicely and regularly to the value π, which is the value that the simulation is trying to estimate. This graph is, indeed, a typical graph, as you can verify by running the simulation yourself. However, notice
Calculated values in PROC REPORT Compute Blocks
Dear Miss SAS Answers, In PROC REPORT can I use one calculated (computed) variable in the calculation of another computed variable? In the example below, I’m trying to use the value of the Bonus column to calculate the Total column: compute Bonus; Bonus =sal.sum*0.05; endcomp; compute Total; total=sum(sal.sum, Bonus.sum); endcomp;
