Last week I wrote about the availability of the IN operator in macro through the use of the MINOPERATOR system option. I mentioned that SAS v9.0/9.1 had introduced a number of useful features to the SAS macro capability. Here are some options that you …

Example 8.23: Expanding latent class model results
In Example 8.21 we described how to fit a latent class model to data from the HELP dataset using SAS and R (using poLCA(), and then followed up in example 8.22 using randomLCA(). In both entries, we classified subjects based on their observed (manifes…
