Strengthen your programming skills with tips and techniques from the experts
Leonid Batkhan describes and discusses pros and cons of 3 different algorithms and SAS code implementations to calculate length of overlap of date/time intervals and integer intervals in general.
Last year, I wrote a blog demonstrating how to use the %Auto_Outliers macro to automatically identify possible data errors. This blog demonstrates a different approach—one that is useful for variables for which you can identify reasonable ranges of values for each variable. For example, you would not expect resting heart
Welcome to the sixth installment in my series Getting Started with Python Integration to SAS Viya. In previous posts, I discussed how to connect to the CAS server, how to execute CAS actions, and how to work with the results. Now it's time to generate simple descriptive statistics of a CAS table. Let's begin
Let's take a look at the design and implementation of SAS functions in financial calculations. We'll do this through examples calculating and analyzing the monthly payment, interest, and principal for CPM/CAM mortgages.
Because it is near the end of the year, I thought a blog about "Summarizing" data might be in order. For these examples, I am going to use a simulated data set called Drug_Study, containing some categorical and numerical variables. For those interested readers, the SAS code that I used
CAS libraries enable you to access your CAS data. By defining the librefs for those caslibs in SAS Studio, you can have more interactive access to the CAS data.
This post is written in the hopes of easing the SAS Viya deployment process for novices like me. Firstly, deploying SAS Viya, like most enterprise software packages, isn't a skill we're innately born with. We're going to need a little help, some good documentation, and time to absorb the intricoes
When we wrote the sixth edition of The Little SAS Book: A Primer, one of our goals was to write it for all SAS programmers regardless of which interface they use for coding: SAS Studio, SAS Enterprise Guide, the SAS windowing environment, or batch. This is harder than it sounds.
This blog is a continuation of a previous blog that discussed creating simulated data sets. If you have not seen it, you might want to review it, especially if you are not familiar with the RAND function. The program that I'm going to show you simulates a drug study with
If you are thinking that nobody in their right mind would implement a Calculator API Service with a machine learning model, then yes, you’re probably right. But considering curiosity is in my DNA, it sometimes works this way and machine learning is fun. I have challenged myself to do it,
