Review Quotes:
"This book is useful for people who want to learn SAS programing, and assumes the students have knowledge of multiple linear regression and one-way ANOVA models....The second edition has added a chapter on text processing, and reorganized the chapter order...Some topics that are relevant for the SAS Base and Certifications exams are covered, and a nice feature is the highlighting of programing tips in gray."
Technometrics
"This is a very complete book for programming SAS in statistical analyses. This second edition offers the possibility to debug some programs and provides new examples and applications, which are very useful. This book is a very useful companion tool for students or beginners in SAS, or for more experienced statisticians who already use SAS for statistical analyses."
