Need help with SAS codes, please

Everton — Thu, 13 Jun 2013 21:36:37 GMT

I am not experienced in SAS codes. Any help that you could give would be much appreciated. I want to use SAS to to a maximum likelihood estimation. I have SAS codes that can do the estimation. However, the problem is that I would like to do many runs of this estimation, with each run using a different set of initial values for the parameters. I have about 100 sets of initial values that I would like to try, But I don't know the SAS codes that can do this automatically. My current codes can only do one run at a time. I'd like to be able to do 100 runs in one go. Is there a SAS code that will allow me to do this? Thanks.

If you have working SAS code it's simpler.

See the link about

A macro program for repeating a procedure multiple times

in the following link to help you get started.
