Hi,
I am looking to learn more about using the SAS statistical package for my job. Is this the same thing as SAS programming? As a beginner, are there any helpful resources that would assist me with learning SAS?
Thank you in advance for your help, I appreciate any advice you can provide!
In addition to Cynthia's response, which is absolutely correct, SAS has a number of tools that give an easier "look and feel" to meeting both data processing and statistical analysis requirements. Two very popular ones are SAS Enterprise Guide and SAS Studio. An interesting feature of both of them is that they create SAS code in the background, based on which options you select in the tool, and you can then use this code to learn SAS.
I suggest you ask your local SAS resources which products you have licensed, and let us know. We can then make some suggestions.
