w

specifies the width of the output field.
The WEEKDATXw.
format writes SAS date values in the form day-of-week, dd month-name, yy (or yyyy),
where
-
dd
-
is an integer that represents the day of
the month.
-
yy or yyyy
-
is a two-digit or a four-digit integer that
represents the year.
If w is too small to write the complete
day of the week and month, then SAS abbreviates as needed.
The WEEKDATEw.
format is the same as the WEEKDATXw. format,
except that WEEKDATEw. prints dd after the month's name.
The WEEKDATXw. format is
the same as the DTWKDATXw. format, except that
DTWKDATXw. expects a datetime value as input.
The example table uses the input value of 16490, which
is the SAS date value that corresponds to February 23, 2005.
