SAS Programming Interfaces


Let's take a look at the programming tools we're going to use. SAS has several programming interfaces that
you can use to interactively write and submit code.

The SAS windowing environment is the interface that is part of SAS. SAS Enterprise Guide is a client
application that runs on your PC and connects to SAS on a local or remote server. SAS Studio is a web-based
interface that connects to SAS on a server. Because it runs in a web browser, there's no download and you
can use it on any computer.

In this class, we'll use SAS Studio and SAS Enterprise Guide because they have the most modern
programming tools. In addition to SAS interfaces, it's also possible to write and submit code in applications
such as Jupyter Notebook, but you won't have access to some of the programming tools that SAS offers.

To program, you need some basics: an editor to write and submit code, a way to read messages related to
the code you submit (this is called the log in SAS), and a way to view the reports and data that your programs
create. Although they look different and are organized differently, all SAS interfaces have these programming
tools. In addition, the program editors in SAS Studio and Enterprise Guide are smart about SAS code. They
include features such as code completion, formatting, and syntax coloring that make programming much
easier!

In this course, you can use your preferred interface. We'll start by showing you how to write and submit code
in both SAS Studio and SAS Enterprise Guide so you can see how each one works.
