Answer / satyanand
SAS represents a date internally as the number of days
between January 1, 1960 and the specified date. Dates
before 1960 are represented with negative numbers. A
SAS date value is a numeric variable

In SAS the date has been stored as machine level language,
and the reference date for SAS is Jan 1, 1960.
To find out the exp of employees we have to use DOJ, then we
