- I have a graduate student that would really like to use SAS for the
- following problem and I don't know where to send him in the FM to
- begin this problem.
-
- SAS platforms we have available are SAS on cms -- 6.07 on a
- small ibm 4381, pc sas and os/2 sas --- 6.06.
-
- He has animal data with beginning and ending dates on trial. Some
- animals will start on the same day, but most end on different days. In
- another file he has daily weather information. He needs to find the
- average weather information for each animal given their beginning and
- ending dates (on average 3 months worth of weather data) on trial.
-
- Any clues? Any suggstions? I suggested he write a FORTRAN program
- but he is vehemently against that idea. Any suggestions for him will be
- greatly appreciated.
