NOTE: The MVN macro is obsolete. Beginning in SAS 9.2, use the RANDNORMAL function in SAS/IML software or PROC SIMNORMAL in SAS/STAT software to generate multivariate normal data.
PURPOSE:
The %MVN macro generates multivariate normal data using the Cholesky root of the variance-covariance matrix. Bivariate normal data can be generated using the DATA step.
