Synopsis

Begin at the beginning with this easy-to-understand introduction to SAS. Step by step, you will perform the simple tasks illustrated in this tutorial and learn about SAS as you work. The tutorial focuses on using the SAS Program Editor, SAS Log, and SAS Output windows. You will learn how to use these windows to write SAS programs, save them to diskettes, submit them for execution, review your log and output files, and print your results. No knowledge of SAS or computers is assumed! Other sections show you how to write INPUT statements that will handle the types of data sets most frequently encountered in research; read raw data as well as correlation and covariance matrices; perform simple descriptive statistical analyses, including crosstabulations; and identify and debug the most common SAS programming errors. Professors and students will find this an invaluable supplement to course texts.
