Many scientists compare the universe to a network of tiny vibrating strings, smaller than subatomic particles. String theory suggests that these strings, as they twist and vibrate give rise to everything around us – matter, energy and even forces like gravity. But this idea of interconnected threads isn’t just confined

SAS 9.4 will get a new maintenance release in 2025. Also, some older SAS releases and product versions will move to Limited Support.

A SAS programmer had many polynomials for which he wanted to compute the real roots. By the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, every polynomial of degree d has d complex roots. You can find these complex roots by using the POLYROOT function in SAS IML. The programmer only wanted to output

What happens if an employee unknowingly enters sensitive information into a public large language model (LLM)? Could that information then be leaked to other users of the same LLM? For example, if you ask ChatGPT or Claude to read and summarize a confidential contract, a patient record or a customer

Magnesium is the fourth most abundant element in the human body. This mineral plays a crucial role in well over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body, including energy production, muscle function, and DNA synthesis. Despite its importance, most of us don't get enough magnesium which can lead to potential health

Here's a SAS tip for you. Most SAS programmers know that SAS provides syntax that makes it easy to specify a list of variables. For example, you can use the hyphen and colon operators to specify lists of variables on many SAS statements: You can use the hyphen operator (-)
