Introducing the SAS Code Analyzer

Tags:
knowledge and data management

Overview This paper introduces the PROC SCAPROC procedure, the SAS Code Analyzer that is new in Release 9.2 of Base SAS Software. The paper examines the advantages of using the procedure, its syntax and phases of execution, and the output that the procedure can produce. If one is responsible for maintaining a large legacy SAS application, one is probably interested in finding ways to improve the performance of the application. This is especially true if the application makes many passes through the same data sets, and one knows that those passes could potentially be run in parallel. However, it can be difficult and tedious to convert an application to run parallel steps, even when one has a good understanding of the application.
