2 SAS 9.4 AGENDA What s new DS2 Language SAS Enterprise Guide 6.1 SAS Studio 3.1

3 DS2 LANGUAGE

4 SAS 9.4 BASE SAS NEW PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE DS2 - New SAS proprietary programming language Object-based syntax user-defined methods and packages ANSI SQL data type support Embedded FedSQL in the SET statement Runs anywhere Base, In-Database (via SAS Code Accelerator), HPA (via HPDS2)

5 SAS IN-DATABASE CODE ACCELERATOR Move the DS2 code to the MPP database SAS DS2 DATA DATA DATA DS2 Thread

6 DS2 OVERVIEW The syntax of the DS2 language intersects with the SAS DATA step but also includes additional data types, ANSI SQL types, programming structure elements, and userdefined methods and packages BIGINT BINARY(n) CHAR(n) DATE DOUBLE FLOAT(p) INTEGER NCHAR(n) NVARCHAR(n) REAL SMALLINT TIME(p) TIMESTAMP(p) TINYINT VARBINARY(n) VARCHAR(n)

7 DS2 WHY USE IT? DS2 is beneficial in applications that need to use the extended data types can make use of packages and methods to re-use common functions or operations can utilize parallel processing (for computationally intense processes) require large data movement

8 PROC DS2; data _null_; method init(); dcl varchar(20) foo; foo = '**> Starting'; put foo; end; method run(); set ds2_sas.banks; put _all_; end; method term(); dcl char(11) bar; bar = '**> I quit!'; put bar; end; enddata; run; quit; BASIC DS2 SYNTAX Initial processing Execution loop Final processing

9 SAS ENTERPRISE GUIDE 6.1

10 SAS 9.4 BASE SAS SAS ENTERPRISE GUIDE 6.1 Support - SAS Enterprise Guide 6.1 is supported on SAS 9.4, 9.3, and 9.2. Improved programmer productivity - new Log Summary window, which lists all the errors, warnings, and notes that were generated when the program ran, as well as related line numbers and a sample of the affected code. Documentation can add Sticky Notes for more information to a process flow or to specific objects in the process flow.
