Goal: In this module, you will learn to use the SAS Environment and program flow in SAS with specifications of Data and Proc steps. Also, you will learn to install SAS University Edition on your system.
Objective:
At the end of this module, you should be able to:
• Install SAS University Edition
• Express SAS as a language
• Describe the rules for the definition of SAS names
• Define the different datatypes, datasets in SAS
• Explain the significance of Data/Procedural step
• Run a simple SAS program
• Exercise better control over Data Step Programming using PDV.
Topics:
• Use Cases of SAS implementation
• Installing SAS University Edition
• Explore SAS GUI, SAS window and its contents
• Rules for definition of a SAS name
• Different Datatypes in SAS
• Use of Formats and Informats in SAS
• Illustration of SAS Datasets
• The Data step and procedural step
• Creating an Instream SAS Dataset
• Basic Procedural statements
• Assessing Input Buffer and Program Data Vector (PDV)
Hands On:
• Navigating the SAS windows environment
• Nuts and bolts of SAS programming steps
• Converting data as per required format
• Creating a dataset using CARDS
• Generating the output using PROC PRINT
Goal: This module introduces you to import datasets and control the import of datasets into SAS and ultimately concatenating them.
Objective: At the end of this module, you should be able to:
• Bring in your external data into SAS and modifying it.
• Describe and subset permanent datasets.
• Modify/Delete existing columns

PUT/INPUT Functions
Date/Time Functions
Numeric Functions
Character Functions
Hands On:
• Use of DO, DO WHILE, DO UNTIL, IF ELSE, ELSE, ELSE IF
• Demonstrate the use of arrays in SAS
• Operation with INPUT/PUT functions
• Writing a Program with date/time functions
• Performing programming with Numeric functions
• Executing program with Character Functions
You will never miss a lecture with us ! You can choose either of the two options:
View the recorded session of the class available in your LMS.
You can attend the missed session, in any other live batch.
We have limited number of participants in a live session to maintain the Quality Standards. So, unfortunately participation in a live class without enrollment is not possible. However, you can go through the sample class recording and it would give you a clear insight about how are the classes conducted, quality of instructors and the level of interaction in a class.
All the instructors are practitioners from the Industry with minimum 10-12 yrs of relevant IT experience. They are subject matter experts and are trained by edureka for providing an awesome learning experience to the participants.
