Purpose of the book
What is the purpose of this book - is it meant to be an introduction to programming in SAS, a history of the company or something else? I have some ideas for content if it is a programming guide which I am happy to add and perhaps the book title should be changed then too?

This book is intended to be a guide to SAS programming. PAC (talk) 14:17, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

I'm not convinced this book in its present form is really of any value. It seems to me that it might be preferable to merge the most important parts into the SAS Programming article on Wikiversity and then direct people to that resource, which seems to me to be both more complete and better written.

I have discovered the wikiversity SAS programming recently and it's true that the wikiversity page is more complete. However, I am not sure that we should merge this book with the university project. I think it would be nice if we could have an R, a Stata and a SAS wikibook. The main advantage of this wikibook over the wikiversity project is that it is organized by task, not by SAS modules. --PAC2 (talk) 07:27, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
