Review ask

As a clinical trial statistician or programmer, answer two short questions in Your review: the task and the inputs. Agreeing with both approves this benchmark; disagreeing with either needs a comment. Propose a fix with the Edit button on any source file, or add it to your comments.

We suggest spending no more than 5 minutes on a review. The other tabs beside Your review are background for assessment, not under review.

Summary

Lifecycle: draftEditUnder review
What this benchmark means
README.md

Public entries: Python and R. Passing coverage requires an installed inventory.

Goal: attempt one record for every subject carrying the collected age (AGE) and sex (SEX), written to a SAS Transport file.

Input: collected demographics records, one per subject.

Variables:

  • AGE would be the collected age, carried into the result unchanged.
  • SEX would be the sex collected in the demographics records, carried into the result unchanged.

Note: the result file named here is a SAS Transport file. That container bounds names to eight uppercase characters, labels to forty, and text to two hundred bytes, and it has no whole-number type and no calendar type, so it cannot hold everything this language admits. A transport file is produced by the packaging step that assembles a submission from published results, not by this run, so the run is rejected before any data is read and no result is accepted.

How to fix

Name a file this language writes: .csv for a reviewable artifact, or .parquet for a production one that carries its own types.

output:
  path: adsl.parquet
  columns: [STUDYID, USUBJID, AGE, SEX]

Convert the published artifact to SAS Transport in the packaging step that assembles the submission. The name, label, text, number, and date limits the container imposes are decided there, against the submission being built, and a name or a value the container cannot carry is a packaging failure rather than a silent change to the dataset.
