Certainly I can suggest books but expertise I don't know how long. I think that's up to the individual.
The same question was asked by another user @new_sas_user_4 while ago And again, I will point you to @ShelleySessoms for the best advice on what SAS press can offer.
Hi @mdoddala
EXPERT level:
High performance coding
Get hold of
https://www.amazon.com/High-Performance-SAS-Coding-Christian-Graffeuille/dp/1512397490
Sir @ChrisNZ Would that be overwhelming for OP or can manage with slow reading ?
@novinosrin Thank you so much for the recommendation. 🙂
The link to the latest edition is https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/179345647X
Some chapters are readily accessible to non-advanced users like common-sense or proc sort. Others are an opportunity to learn. 🙂
Thank you @novinosrin for the prompt response:)
Hi @mdoddala ,
@novinosrin has recommended the two books I would recommend. @ChrisNZ 's book is excellent, as is anything by Ron Cody. You can't go wrong with either.
Best of luck to you,
Shelley
