SQL progamming for SAS
Hi BI Crowd (or whatever we're called)! Here goes my first post :) I have recently started to teach myself how to do basic programming on SAS (I'm just a SAS EG user at this stage) and came across these links that I found very helpful. 1. http://www2.sas.com/proceedings/sugi29/269-29.pdf This article explains the difference between DATA steps and SQL on SAS (although I'm still trying to figure out why there are two different types of programming.. all I know is I like SQL because I can grab the codes from SAS EG :P) 2. http://www2.sas.com/proceedings/sugi30/257-30.pdf I'm using this as my manual to get my basic sorted on SQL programming. I'm finding it real useful. Sabrina also has an awesome book called SAS Certification Prep Guide: Base Programming, which I also found very helpful. If anyone comes across any other useful links or books on programming, please let me know! Better get back to real work..

ReplyDeleteJust to let you know, I've posted a blog on LinkedIn asking for a list of the best resources for learning SAS programming.
Hope this will help
