The REPORT Procedure 4 Program 977
Calculate values for the computed variable. This compute block computes the value of
Perish from the values for the Meat/Dairy department and the Produce department. Because
the variables Sales and Department collectively define these columns, there is no way to
identify the values to PROC REPORT by name. Therefore, the assignment statement uses
column numbers to unambiguously specify the values to use. Each time PROC REPORT needs a
value for Perish, it sums the values in the third and fourth columns of that row of the report.
compute perish;
perish=sum(_c3_, _c4_);
endcomp;
Produce a customized summary. This compute block creates a customized summary at the
end of the report. The first LINE statement writes 57 hyphens (-) starting in column 4.
Subsequent LINE statements write the quoted text in the specified columns and the values of
the variables _C3_, _C4_, and _C5_ with the DOLLAR11.2 format. Note that the pointer control
(@) is designed for the Listing destination. It has no effect on ODS destinations other than
traditional SAS monospace output.

Select the observations to process. The WHERE statement selects for the report only the
observations for departments p1 and p2 in stores in the northeast or northwest sector.
