  2. What is a SAS array?

    * a set of variables grouped together for the duration of a data step by being given a name in an ARRAY statement.

    C

    Not B. Wow, you can't use arrays in procedures. Bummer.

    I admire the purity of the SAS programming language even if obsessive at times.

    D is a no no of course.

    Not A. Arrays are not stored in data sets but only their elements, so no name.
