Is anybody using "PROC ALLELE" in SAS on demand for Academics?

CarlosPirola — Sun, 28 Mar 2021 22:27:21 GMT

I have tried to use "proc allele" in SAS on demand for Academics

I.e.:

proc allele data=WORK.IMPORT outstat=ld prefix=Marker
exact=10000 boot=1000 seed=123;
var PNPLA3A1 PNPLA3A2 RS726135 RS726132;
run;

and got the error:

1 OPTIONS NONOTES NOSTIMER NOSOURCE NOSYNTAXCHECK;

4 OPTIONS LOCALE=es_419 DFLANG=LOCALE;

______

ERROR 14-12: Invalid option value ES_419 for SAS option LOCALE.

73 proc allele data=WORK.IMPORT outstat=ld prefix=Marker

ERROR: Procedure ALLELE not found.

74 exact=10000 boot=1000 seed=123;

75 var PNPLA3A1 PNPLA3A2 RS726135 RS726132;

76 run;

NOTE: The SAS System stopped processing this step because of errors.

NOTE: PROCEDURE ALLELE ha utilizado (Tiempo de proceso total):

The first error 14-12 seems to be general and neutral as other routines, for example importing data gaves the same one but works.

The second one, "ERROR: Procedure ALLELE not found" in line 73 may be due to unavailability in the this SAS version or something else.

May anybody provide me any help?

Many thanks,

Best wishes,

Carlos

PROC ALLELE appears to from a SAS product called SAS/Genetics. I suspect this is a legacy product not included in SAS On Demand for Academics.

Thanks. It was my believe too. Is there any list of available Procs for the
SAS on demand for Academics package?

Be well

From https://www.sas.com/en_us/software/on-demand-for-academics/features-list.html

The basic module list is

SAS/STAT^® – State-of-the-art statistical software.

Base SAS^® – Flexible, extensible fourth-generation programming language for data access, transformation and reporting.

SAS/IML^® – Interactive matrix programming and exploratory data analysis.

SAS/OR^® – Enhanced operations research methods for optimizing processes and addressing management science challenges.

SAS/QC^® – Tools for statistical quality improvement.

SAS/ETS^® – Model, forecast and simulate processes with econometric and time series analysis.

Which procs are in which package you'll need to search the documentation. I'm not sure if any of these are subsets of the full module as was the case for SAS/ETS in the University Edition where only some procs were supplied.

@CarlosPirola - According to this useful link you can find some genetics algorithms in SAS/OR.

Dear SASKiwi:

Thanks a lot for your exhaustive search and info. I saw the link. There is a
Proc in SAS/OR but nothing related to the functionality of SAS/Genetics. But
do not worry, the tests I need for LD, haplotypes, etc can be found in the
PLINK package, which may not be friendly but is very comprehensive.

By the way, the first ERROR I describe in my post, is something related to
my system configuration or I may have another problem.

Again, thank you for your help and info.

All the best,

Carlos
