SCL supports data structures and
functions for manipulating data in SCL lists. SCL lists, like arrays, are
ordered collections of data. However, lists are more flexible than arrays
in many ways. For example, SCL lists are dynamic. Therefore, a program can
create a list only when and if it is needed. Lists grow and shrink to accommodate
the number of items or the size of items that you assign to them. Also, an
SCL list can contain items of differing data types.
See also the SCL list functions. Each function
and the
tasks it can perform are described in SAS Component Language Dictionary.
