Hi ,
I would like to learn SAS and my purpose of learning the same is to help me do data analysis. I have absolutely no idea about which topics should I start up with?
I do not know any computer language-- SQL, linux etc. however I can learn these if needed.

Can you please let me know how should I go about learning the basics of SAS

Thanks

First, do you already have access to SAS through school or work? It is incredibly expensive to license for a single individual. Assuming the answer is "yes" ...

For analysis, stating with one of the Books By Users for SAS Enterprise Guide will go a long way to becoming productive. Either "SAS for Dummies" or "The little SAS book for Enterprise Guide 4.x" is a good start. Neither cover statistics, but both prepare one well for using the analysis tasks in EGuide.
