Packages(Experimental)

Store the ZIP file somewhere on your file system. This example assumes that the ZIP file is located in the directory C:\Packages .

Run the PACKAGE INSTALL statement to install the package from the ZIP file, as follows:

proc iml;
package install "C:\Packages\righttriangle.zip";
quit;

Run the following statements to ensure that the package installed correctly:

proc iml;
package list;
package info RightTriangle;
package help RightTriangle;

Load the package and run the programs in the programs directory, as described in the section Step 4: Create a Program File. For example, the following statements test each function in the RightTriangle package:

package load RightTriangle;
Rt = IsRightTriangle({3 4 5});  /* 1 = valid lengths     */
leg = FindLeg({3 5});           /* find 2nd leg from hypotenuse and leg */
hypot = FindHypotenuse({3 4});  /* find hypotenuse from legs */
print Rt leg hypot;             /* correct answer is {1 4 5} */
