Overview
As a programming language, the Interactive Matrix Language has many features that enable you to control the path of execution through the statements. The control statements in IML function in a way that is similar to the corresponding statements in the SAS DATA step. This chapter presents the following control features:
- IF-THEN/ELSE statements
- DO groups
- iterative execution
- jumping (nonconsecutive execution)
- module definition and execution
- stopping execution
