Complete SAS Programming Guide - Learn SAS and Become a Data Ninja - Using SET Statement to Merge

The video tutorial explains how to merge or concatenate datasets using the merge and set statements. It emphasizes the importance of having consistent variable names and types across datasets. The tutorial provides solutions for handling differing variable names, such as renaming them before merging or during the import process. A practical example is demonstrated, showing how to use the set statement with a rename option to merge two datasets with differing variable names.

Describe the process of renaming variables during the import process.

What is the result of merging datasets with mismatched variable names?
