This course is the first in my SAS training series. A Case Study at the end of the course will test your understanding!Welcome! Start this SAS tutorial online to learn SAS basics and get SAS certification. You may not understand certain aspects if you skip videos. If you only care about the import.txt lecture and not the lines of code, it may appear that some aspects are being missed. If you are studying SAS at a post-secondary institution, this course can not only help you with school projects but prepare you for a career after you complete your education.Commercially, SAS is the most used programming language. SAS is a powerful data analytic and statistical tool that can be used to help with data entry, management, and analysis. This tutorial will show you how to become a data ninja. You will learn how import different file types (.txt.csv..xlsx); how to work with data to merge two data sets, filter observations and clean and reduce your data. How to read dates and create an enumeration variables. You will also find sections on Informats/Formats, SAS Input Types, and Column Input (list input, column output, formatted input). I will be sharing some details about arrays in the arrays section. I will now show you how to use arrays to recode variables or create new ones. In the Functions section, I will cover the Rand function, length/lengthn/lengthc functions, Trim function, compress function, input/put functions, catx function and more!In the visualization section, you will learn how to make a scatter plot and bar charts. The statistical (data analysis) section will teach you how to interpret and analyze data. This section will discuss independent t-tests and chi-square analysis. It also covers linear regression and multiple regression. A few concepts from Macro programming have been added. You will also find a Case Study, which is based on a real-life application. It allows you to see how the concepts are integrated. Learning SAS programming language means that you can achieve the same goal with any software that supports SAS language. Personally, I use WPS. There are many options available to you. No risk! SAS training is risk-free! Your future looks brighter with SAS training.DISCLAIMER We are not in any way affiliated or associated with SAS Institute.

The computer programming language is also referred to whenever you hear the terms "SAS", SAS Language, and "language of SAS" in my course content. My course will use phrases such as "program", SAS program, and SAS language program to refer to SAS-language programs. These programs can also be called "scripts", or "SAS scripts" (or "SAS language scripts").
