It formats or reformats data in the SAS system.
It looks this:
proc format; value kanefmt 1='A' 2='B' 3='C' 4='X' 5='Throw me
out';
data temp; do i=1 to 10; kanevar=put(i,kanefmt.); output; end;
proc print; run;
And produces this:
Obs i kanevar
1 1 A
2 2 B
3 3 C
4 4 X
5 5 Throw me out
6 6 6
7 7 7
8 8 8
9 9 9
10 10 10
But it is more robust than what is shown here.
