Synopsis
Want to learn SAS software but don't know where to start? Lora Delwiche and Susan Slaughter's easy-to-read Little SAS Book, Second Edition, gently introduces you to the most commonly used features of SAS software plus a whole lot more! Topics cover the gamut of Base SAS concepts, an introduction to SAS/STAT, and getting your data into SAS (including PROC IMPORT and PROC EXPORT). You'll find a generous amount of information addressing basic SAS concepts (such as DATA and PROC steps); using the SAS windowing environment; working with permanent and temporary SAS data sets; inputting and reading data; modifying data; using the Output Delivery System (ODS), which enables you to generate HTML files for viewing with an Internet browser; using macros; debugging SAS programs (including the DATA step debugger); and appendixes to help programmers of other software languages become comfortable with the SAS programming language. Each topic is divided into an easy-to-use, self-contained, two-page layout complete with examples and graphics. This format enables new users to get up and running quickly, while the examples allow you to type in the programs and see them work! Seasoned programmers will find this guide a useful reference to have on hand.

About the Author
Lora D. Delwiche is an applications software consultant with Information Technology at the University of California at Davis. With over 13 years experience using the SAS System, Lora acts as a SAS site representative and teaches classes on the SAS language. Her experiences teaching SAS to users from many different disciplines prompted her to write a book proving that the SAS System is "not hard to learn." Susan J. Slaughter, an independent computing consultant, "got hooked" on SAS in graduate school over 13 years ago. Since then she has used SAS for a variety of business and academic tasks: managing large databases, teaching SAS software classes, and writing articles about the SAS System. Her experiences prompted her to write a book that would be both informative and fun to read.
