Learn to program SAS by example! Learning SAS by Example, A Programmer’s Guide, Second Edition, teaches SAS programming from very basic concepts to more advanced topics. Because most programmers prefer examples rather than reference-type syntax, this book uses short examples to explain each topic. The second edition has brought this classic book on SAS programming up to the latest SAS version, with new chapters that cover topics such as PROC SGPLOT and Perl regular expressions. This book belongs on the shelf (or e-book reader) of anyone who programs in SAS, from those with little programming experience who want to learn SAS to intermediate and even advanced SAS programmers who want to lear...
Written in Ron Cody's signature informal, tutorial style, this book develops and demonstrates data cleaning programs and macros that you can use as written or modify which will make your job of data cleaning easier, faster, and more efficient. --
In SAS Statistics by Example, Ron Cody offers up a cookbook approach for doing statistics with SAS. Structured specifically around the most commonly used statistical tasks or techniques--for example, comparing two means, ANOVA, and regression--this book provides an easy-to-follow, how-to approach to statistical analysis not found in other books. For each statistical task, Cody includes heavily annotated examples using ODS Statistical Graphics procedures such as SGPLOT, SGSCATTER, and SGPANEL that show how SAS can produce the required statistics. Also, you will learn how to test the assumptions for all relevant statistical tests. Major topics featured include descriptive statistics, one- and two-sample tests, ANOVA, correlation, linear and multiple regression, analysis of categorical data, logistic regression, nonparametric techniques, and power and sample size. This is not a book that teaches statistics. Rather, SAS Statistics by Example is perfect for intermediate to advanced statistical programmers who know their statistics and want to use SAS to do their analyses. This book is part of the SAS Press program.
Fully updated for SAS 9.2, Ron Cody's SAS Functions by Example, Second Edition, is a must-have reference for anyone who programs in Base SAS. With the addition of functions new to SAS 9.2, this comprehensive reference manual now includes more than 200 functions, including new character, date and time, distance, probability, sort, and special functions. This new edition also contains more examples for existing functions and more details concerning optional arguments. Like the first edition, the new edition also includes a list of SAS programs, an alphabetic list of all the functions in the book, and a comprehensive index of functions and tasks. Beginning and experienced SAS users will benefit from this useful reference guide to SAS functions. This book is part of the SAS Press program.
Cody's Collection of Popular SAS Programming Tasks and How to Tackle Them presents often-used programming tasks that readers can either use as presented or modify to fit their own programs, all in one handy volume. Esteemed author and SAS expert Ron Cody covers such topics as character to numeric conversion, automatic detection of numeric errors, combining summary data with detail data, restructuring a data set, grouping values using several innovative methods, performing an operation on all character or all numeric variables in a SAS data set, and much more! SAS users of all levels interested in improving their programming skills will benefit from this easy-to-follow collection of tasks.
Aimed at beginners who have downloaded the free SAS University Edition and want to either use the point-and-click interactive environment of SAS Studio, or who want to write their own SAS programs, or both, this book begins by showing you how to obtain the SAS University Edition, and how you can run SAS on a PC or Macintosh computer. Topics include: performing basic tasks, such as producing a report, summarizing data, producing charts and graphs, and using the SAS Studio built-in tasks; performing basic statistical tests using the interactive point-and-click environment; how to write your own SAS programs, and how to use SAS procedures to perform a variety of tasks; how to read data from a variety of sources: text files, Excel workbooks, and CSV files. In order to get familiar with the SAS Studio environment, this book also shows you how to access dozens of interesting data sets that are included with the product. --
Aimed specifically at the health sciences,Biostatistics by Example Using SAS Studio, provides an introduction on how to use the point-and-click SAS Studio tasks to solve basic statistical problems. The book will include many biological and health related problem sets and will be fully compatible with SAS University Edition.
Learn by doing as you work through the programming problems offered in this unique book. Begin with exercises related to the DATA step, then move to elementary and then advanced exercises on frequently used SAS procedures. Challenges for beginning, intermediate, and advanced programmers are provided. Users receive a good start on each problem with directions and hints about useful programming tools. Students, teachers, and trainers will work with base SAS procedures such as FORMAT, PRINT, TABULATE, PLOT, and others; solve simple descriptive statistics problems as well as those using the FREQ, TTEST, GLM, ANOVA, and NPAR1WAY procedures; and have fun with some SAS brain teasers in the book's last section. As a service to our educational market, this book is available separately. It can also be ordered packaged with the solutions (#55594). Book jacket.
