Aimed at researchers and students, "SAS Programming: The One-Day Course" provides an introduction to the SAS programming language. It gives the reader a start in SAS programming and the basic data manipulations and statistical summaries that are available through SAS. The book has its origins in material prepared by the author for a one-day course in SAS programming, and the fact that it has been developed from a training course is reflected in the concise nature of the presentation. Unlike other introductory competitors on the market, this is a pocket-sized reference that does not clutter the programming techniques presented by trying to teach statistical techniques at the same time.Strong on explanations of how to carry out data manipulations that real-life data often call for, each programming technique is supported by tasks to develop skills and confidence. It also contains 'tasks' for the reader, complete with solutions. Datasets and the programming code are available to download. Once readers have mastered the topics covered in the book, they will be well placed to learn further aspects of SAS programming.
