Given the SAS data set WORK.ORDERS:

The variable order_id is numeric; customer is character; and shipped is numeric, contains a SAS date value, and is shown with the DATE9. format. A programmer would like to create a new variable, ship_note, that shows a character value with the order_id, shipped date, and customer name. For example, given the first observation ship_note would have the value "Order 9341 shipped on 02FEB2009 to Josh Martin". Which of the following statement will correctly create the value and assign it to ship_note?
