Do you want to create data analysis reports without writing a line of code? This course introduces SAS programming using SAS Studio. The power of SAS Studio comes from its visual point-and-click user interface that generates SAS code. All that you will learn in this course, you can apply seamlessly using SAS Enterprise Guide or SAS Viya as all platforms use the same programming language and same syntax.
It is easier to learn SAS than to learn R and Python to accomplish data cleaning, statistics, and visualization tasks. If you use any other SAS product, this course will cover the SAS programming syntax and fundamentals needed to do your data reports.
The course provides real-life examples including analyzing election predictions, stocks, oil and gold prices, crime, marketing, and healthcare. You will see data science in action and how easy it is to perform complicated tasks and visualizations in SAS.
You will learn, step-by-step, how to do visualizations, including maps. In most cases, you will not need a line of code as you work with the SAS graphical user interface. The course includes explanations of the code that SAS IDE generates automatically. You will learn how to edit this code to perform more complicated advanced tasks.
You will:
• Become familiar with SAS IDE
• Understand essential visualizations
• Know the fundamental statistical analysis required in most data science and analytics reports
• Clean the most common data set problems
• Use linear progression for data prediction
• Write programs in SAS
This class is most appropriate for data scientists and those wanting data analytics. Individuals mastering the content of this class will be qualified to pass the SAS certification exams for SAS 9.4 Base Programming (A00-231) and SAS 9.4 Programming Fundamentals (A00-215). Also, class participants will be on their way toward being qualified for the SAS 9.4 Advanced Programming (A00-212). Speak with the instructor or to a customer service representative to get additional supplemental material to prepare for the Advanced Programming certification.
No prior knowledge of SAS is required.
