Given the SAS data set WORK.ORDERS:

The variable Order_id is numeric; Customer is character; and Ship_date is a numeric containing a SAS date value. A programmer would like to create a new variable called Note, that shows a character value with the Order_id and Ship_date shown with a date9. format. For the first observation, Note would look like the following: "Order 9341 shipped on 02FEB2009". Which of the following statement will correctly create the value and assign it to Note?
