This course is for business analysts and SAS programmers who want to learn data manipulation techniques using the SAS DATA step and procedures to access, transform, and summarize data. The course builds on the concepts that are presented in the Getting Started with SAS Programming course and is not recommended for beginning SAS software users. In this course you learn how to understand and control DATA step processing, create an accumulating column and process data in groups, manipulate data with functions, convert column type, create custom formats, concatenate and merge tables, process repetitive code, and restructure tables. This course addresses Base SAS software. Before attending this course, you should be able to write DATA step code to access data, subset rows and columns, compute new columns, and process data conditionally. You should also be able to sort tables using the SORT procedure and apply SAS formats.

Course Overview and Data Setup
In this module you get an overview of what you learn in this course and your set up for software and the data you use for activities and practices in the course.
Controlling DATA Step Processing
In this module, we dig deeper into the DATA step. You learn how the DATA step processes data behind the scenes. Then you use this knowledge to control when and where the DATA step outputs rows to new tables.
Summarizing Data
In this module, you learn new syntax that enables you to alter the default behavior of the DATA step to solve a problem. First you learn to create an accumulating column, or in other words generate a running total. Then you learn to process data in groups, so you can perform an action when each group begins or ends.
Manipulating Data with Functions
In this module, you learn to use some new functions that enable you to manipulate numeric, date, and character values. In addition, you learn to use functions that change a column from one data type to another.
Creating and Using Custom Formats
In this module, you learn to create and use custom formats to enhance the way your data is displayed in a table or report.
Principais avaliações do Doing More with SAS Programming
This course provided me with the know how needed to write SAS programs. I would definitely recommend this course for folks looking to get an insight on writing or understanding SAS codes.
Great second part of the 3 part SAS course. TIP: Print the syntax notes at the end of each week. They will help you take notes and keep track of what you are learning.
