Welcome to the continuation of my series Getting Started with Python Integration to SAS Viya. In previous posts, I discussed how to connect to the CAS server, working with CAS actions and CASResults objects, and how to summarize columns. Now it's time to focus on how to get the count of unique values
SAS expert Leonid Batkhan demonstrates how to automatically replicate/clone metadata users’ groups and roles from one user to another.
The addition of the PYTHON procedure and Python editor in SAS Viya enables users to execute Python code in SAS Studio. This new capability in SAS Viya adds another tool to SAS's existing collection. With this addition I thought, how can I utilize this new found power? In this example,

Veteran SAS user Leonid Batkhan introduces you to open-source SASjs framework.
The Missionaries and Cannibals Problem (MCP) is a classic river-crossing logic puzzle. With SAS, we can solve this problem, visualize the solutions with SAS NETDRAW procedure and generate steps for any MCP problems.
SAS' Mark Jordan shows you how to modify data using PROC SQL, PROC DATASETS and SAS macros.
This article introduces how to solve the pirate game with a recursive solving algorithm in SAS, and how to analyze and visualize the law behind the complex logic of the pirate game. If you join in a pirate game next time, you can know your destiny ahead of time to reap the benefits and avoid getting killed.
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
Leonid Batkhan introduces multipurpose TRIMS function that removes any leading, trailing or both leading and trailing characters from SAS strings.
Tired of waiting for answers? Then make your SAS code run faster with these 5 tips.
SAS' Leonid Batkhan shows how to cut away ANY unwanted trailing characters (not just blanks) from SAS text strings to clean up your data.

SAS Global Certification is pleased to announce two (yes two!) new SAS Viya programming certifications. Traditional SAS programmers need to migrate their code and data to SAS Viya environments, and there are important skills required to make a successful transition. SAS Viya includes Cloud Analytic Services (CAS), where data is
SAS' Leonid Batkhan presents an implementation of parallel processing by spawning multiple SAS sessions using SYSTASK statements with subsequent synchronization.
It’s safe to say that SAS Global Forum is a conference designed for users, by users. As your conference chair, I am excited by this year’s top-notch user sessions. More than 150 sessions are available, many by SAS users just like you. Wherever you work or whatever you do, you’ll
