Hello. I am finishing my degree in statistics and am quite proficient in R and R markdown. However, looking at jobs, I see a lot of them prefer SAS compared to R. Is there a good site or blog post where I can self learn the coding of SAS since I already know a lot of the application of statistics from R? Thank you.

Scroll down to find the SAS Programming for R Users which is free. 

 

You can download the software and run it locally or you can use a version hosted on the cloud.

Or cloud - select self learner option
