PCA Procedure
CODE Statement
CODE <options>;
The CODE statement writes SAS DATA step code for computing the principal component scores either to a file, to a catalog entry, or to a data table. To score new data, you can then include the file in a DATA step, or you can specify the table in the runCodeTable action in the dataStep action set (for more information, see SAS Viya: System Programming Guide).
The CODE statement is not supported when you specify the PARTIAL statement. If you specify more than one CODE statement, only the first one specified is used.
Table 5 summarizes the options available in the CODE statement.
