Rank Columns - Starter template

Description

The Rank Columns - Starter template custom step computes ranks for one or more numeric columns across all records of a table and writes the ranks to a new table.

The following options are supported to specify how to rank tied values: HIGH | LOW | MEAN (default) | DENSE. More details can be found in SAS Viya Programming Documentation - RANK Procedure

By default, the values in the selected columns to rank are overwritten with the calculated rank. When selecting the option to create new columns, the new column names will use the following naming convention: input column name prefixed with rank_.

And indeed, this custom step is very similar to the Advanced Rank custom step that can be found in the Starter templates in SAS Studio itself (Steps panel -> button "New and sample custom steps").

Version: 1.0 (25AUG2022)
