The DTWKDATXw.
format writes SAS date values in the form day-of-week, dd month-name, yy or
yyyy, where
-
day-of-week
-
is either the first three letters of the
day name or the entire day name.
-
dd
-
is an integer that represents the day of
the month.
-
month-name
-
is either the first three letters of the
month name or the entire month name.
-
yy or yyyy
-
is a two-digit or four-digit integer that
represents the year.
The DTWKDATXw.
format is similar to the WEEKDATXw. format in
that they both write date values. The difference is that DTWKDATXw. expects a datetime value as input, and WEEKDATXw. expects a SAS date
value.
The example table uses as input the value 1476598132,
which is the SAS datetime value that corresponds to October 16, 2002, at 06:08:52
a.m.
