Reading Raw Data into SAS

Telling SAS Where to Find Raw Data Different INPUT Styles (List, Column, Formatted, Mixed) INFORMATS Reading Messy Raw Data Reading Multiple Lines of Raw Data per Observation Reading Multiple Observations per Line of Raw Data Options in the INFILE Statement Reading Delimited Files with the DATA Step (@n, @ , @, @@, /, #n, :, & )

Working with SAS Data

Creating and Redefining Variables SAS Functions Numeric: sum, mean, max, mod, fact, range Char: substr, scan, length, lengthc, cat, catx, tranwrd, compbl, index, indexc Date: day, week, qtr, mdy, datejul, intck, intnx, weekday, datetime, datepart IF-THEN/ELSE Statements RETAIN Shortcuts DO-LOOP ARRAYS Informats, Formats, Functions, Labels

Procedures
WHERE Statement IF vs WHERE Titles and Footnotes SORT PRINT CONTENTS FORMAT MEANS FREQ TABULATE REPORT TRANSPOSE Creating Reports using DATA step

Enhancing Output with ODS

PROC TEMPLATE ODS TRACE ON / OFF ODS SELECT / EXCLUDE Creating HTML / RTF / PDF Output Customizing Titles and Footnotes Customizing PROC PRINT Output with the STYLE= Option Customizing PROC REPORT Output with the STYLE= Option Customizing PROC TABULATE Output with the STYLE= Option Using PROC FORMAT in ODS as style attribute values
