• explore data through graphs linked across multiple windows

• transform data

• subset data

• analyze univariate distributions

• discover structure and features in multivariate data

• fit and evaluate explanatory models

• create your own customized statistical graphics

• add legends, curves, maps, or other custom features to statistical graphics

• develop interactive programs that use dialog boxes

• extend the built-in analyses by calling SAS procedures

• create custom analyses

• repeat an analysis on different data

• extend the results of SAS procedures by using IML

• share analyses with colleagues who also use SAS/IML Studio

• call functions from libraries written in R, C/C++, FORTRAN, or Java
