Overview

SAS/IML software has many linear operators that perform high-level operations commonly needed in applying linear algebra techniques to data analysis. The similarity of the Interactive Matrix Language notation and matrix algebra notation makes translation from algorithm to program a straightforward task. The examples in this chapter show a variety of matrix operators at work.

You can use these examples to gain insight into the more complex problems you might need to solve. Some of the examples perform the same analyses as performed by procedures in SAS/STAT software and are not meant to replace them. The examples are included as learning tools.
