BRIDGES THE GAP BETWEEN SAS AND R, ALLOWING USERS TRAINED IN ONE LANGUAGE TO EASILY LEARN THE OTHER
SAS and R are widely-used, very different software environments. Prized for its statistical and graphical tools, R is an open-source programming language that is popular with statisticians and data miners who develop statistical software and analyze data. SAS (Statistical Analysis System) is the leading corporate software in analytics thanks to its faster data handling and smaller learning curve. SAS for R Users enables entry-level data scientists to take advantage of the best aspects of both tools by providing a cross-functional framework for users who already know R but may need to work with SAS.
Those with knowledge of both R and SAS are of far greater value to employers, particularly in corporate settings. Using a clear, step-by-step approach, this book presents an analytics workflow that mirrors that of the everyday data scientist. This up-to-date guide is compatible with the latest R packages as well as SAS University Edition. Useful for anyone seeking employment in data science, this book:
- Instructs both practitioners and students fluent in one language seeking to learn the other
- Provides command-by-command translations of R to SAS and SAS to R
- Offers examples and applications in both R and SAS
- Presents step-by-step guidance on workflows, color illustrations, sample code, chapter quizzes, and more
- Includes sections on advanced methods and applications
Designed for professionals, researchers, and students, SAS for R Users is a valuable resource for those with some knowledge of coding and basic statistics who wish to enter the realm of data science and business analytics.

彌合 SAS 與 R 之間的差距，讓受過一種語言訓練的使用者能輕鬆學習另一種語言
SAS 和 R 是廣泛使用且截然不同的軟體環境。R 是一種開源程式語言，以其統計和圖形工具而受到重視，特別受到開發統計軟體和分析數據的統計學家和數據挖掘者的喜愛。SAS（統計分析系統）由於其更快的數據處理能力和較小的學習曲線，成為分析領域的領先企業軟體。《SAS for R Users》使入門級數據科學家能夠利用這兩種工具的最佳特性，為已經熟悉 R 的使用者提供一個跨功能的框架，讓他們能夠與 SAS 一起工作。
擁有 R 和 SAS 知識的人對雇主的價值更高，特別是在企業環境中。本書採用清晰的逐步方法，呈現一個與日常數據科學家相似的分析工作流程。這本最新的指南與最新的 R 套件以及 SAS 大學版相容。對於任何尋求數據科學職位的人來說，本書：
- 指導精通一種語言的從業者和學生學習另一種語言
- 提供 R 到 SAS 和 SAS 到 R 的逐條命令翻譯
- 提供 R 和 SAS 的範例和應用
- 提供有關工作流程的逐步指導、彩色插圖、範例代碼、章節測驗等
- 包括高級方法和應用的部分
《SAS for R Users》專為專業人士、研究人員和學生設計，是希望進入數據科學和商業分析領域的具備一定編碼和基本統計知識的人的寶貴資源。
