Question 1

When a user begins a new SAS Viya session, what is the default behavior for the CASUSER caslib with respect to data management?

A : The CASUSER caslib is preloaded with common datasets available to all users for convenience.

B : The CASUSER caslib retains all data from previous user sessions for continuity unless manually cleared.

C : The CASUSER caslib starts empty and is intended to temporarily store session-specific data which is cleansed after the session ends.

D : The CASUSER caslib automatically archives user data to a permanent storage solution when the session is closed.

Answer: C

Question 2

You are working on a SAS Viya programming task that involves the manipulation of customer transaction data. You have a numeric variable named 'Trans_Amount', which stores the transaction amounts in dollars and cents (e.g., 123.45). However, you notice that some transaction amounts are incorrectly recorded as negative values due to a data entry error. To ensure accurate analyses, what numeric property of the 'Trans_Amount' variable could you use or modify to correct these values in your programming code?

A : Set a user-defined format to display negative numbers as positive.

B : Utilize the ABS function to convert negative values to their absolute values.

C : Change the variable's length to accommodate larger numbers.

D : Implement a WHERE clause to filter out all negative values.

Answer: B

Question 3

A data analyst needs to create a view that includes data from the 'transactions' table but only for the records where the transaction amount is higher than 5000. Which PROC SQL code snippet would allow the analyst to create this view in SAS Viya correctly?

A : PROC SQL; CREATE VIEW high_value_transactions AS SELECT * FROM transactions WHERE transaction_amount > 5000; QUIT;

B : PROC PRINT; CREATE VIEW high_value_transactions AS SELECT * FROM transactions WHERE transaction_amount > 5000; RUN;

C : DATA high_value_transactions; SET transactions; WHERE transaction_amount > 5000; RUN;

D : PROC SQL; CREATE VIEW high_value_transactions AS SELECT * FROM transactions HAVING transaction_amount > 5000; QUIT;

Answer: A

Question 4

You are designing a stored process in SAS Viya and you need to dynamically pass a table name into a SQL step. Which of the following SAS macro invocations would correctly supply a dataset name to the macro so that it can be used in the SQL step to reference a table parameter named 'myTable'?

A : %let tableName = 'work.myData'; %myMacro(table=tableName);

B : %let tableName = work.myData; %myMacro(table=tableName);

C : %let tableName = work.myData; %myMacro(table=&tableName;);

D : %let tableName = 'work.myData'; %myMacro(table=&tableName.;);

Answer: C

Question 5

A data analyst is working on a series of data transformations in a SAS Viya environment. They create an in-memory table called 'work.session_data' to use in their session. Later, the analyst decides that this table should be used across multiple sessions and by other users as well. Which of the following steps should the analyst take to ensure that 'session_data' is accessible globally?

A : Use the 'save' statement to write 'work.session_data' to a permanent location.

B : Use the PROC DATASETS procedure to move 'work.session_data' to the 'public' library.

C : Promote 'work.session_data' using the 'table.promote' task in SAS Viya.

D : Rename 'work.session_data' to 'global.session_data' to automatically promote the table.
