    • 3.1. Data management facility
    • 3.2. Programming language
    • 3.3. Data analysis and reporting utilities
  • Output from SAS

    You will learn about the traditional output and output from Output Delivery System (ODS) in SAS. The traditional output can be in SAS data set, SAS log, report, external files or entries in the database. The output from ODS can be in a variety of forms like an HTML file, a PostScript file, an RTF file and an output data set

    Class 4.1:

    • Output from Traditional SAS
    • Output from Output Delivery System
  • Method to Run SAS Programs

    This chapter teaches you about the different ways to run SAS programs. The different process of running SAS programs differ in the speed, the amount of computer resources utilized and the amount of interaction with the program. In some instances, the method of running the SAS program determines the appearance of the output.

    Class 5.1:

    • SAS Windowing Environment
    • SAS/ASSIST Software
    • Noninteractive Mode
    • Batch Mode
