A Typical Program

Your programs must include at least one procedure (PROC step), which in turn contains a number of statements related to the procedure. The programs can also include ODS statements, ODS GRAPHICS statements, and Base SAS statements. In addition, the programs can specify an annotation data set or an attribute map data set.
