Character Functions In SAS (Part I)

In this session, we will be learning major SAS string functions with syntax and examples. We will also present you with an example representing a declaration of two string variables. The examples and syntaxes will help you to understand the string functions in SAS in a better way.
Strings in SAS programming are the values that are enclosed within a pair of single quotes. String variables are declared by placing a $ sign at the end of the declaration of a variable. SAS has a vast repository of functions that can be applied to strings for analysis.
SAS programming has a vast number of SAS string functions that can be applied to strings to make our analysis easier.
