Synopsis

This updated edition shows how to use the SAS System to perform basic statistical analysis. General topics include creating a data set with the SAS System; summarizing data with descriptive statistics, frequency tables, and bar charts; comparing groups (t-tests, one-way ANOVA, and nonparametric analogues); performing basic linear regression (lines, curves, and two-variable models); performing simple regression diagnostics (residuals plots, studentized residuals); and creating and analyzing tables of data. Using real-life examples, this beginner's guide bridges the gap between statistics texts and SAS documentation.

Supports releases 6.07 and higher of SAS software.
