Related Software and Documentation

This book is one of three documents about Stat Studio. In this book you learn how to use the Stat Studio GUI to conduct exploratory data analysis and standard statistical analyses.

A second book, Stat Studio for SAS/STAT Users, is intended for SAS/STAT programmers. In it, you learn how to use Stat Studio in conjunction with SAS/STAT in order to explore data and visualize statistical models. In particular, you learn to call procedures in other SAS products such as SAS/STAT or Base SAS by using the SUBMIT statement.

The third source of documentation is the Stat Studio online Help. You can display the online Help by selecting Help Help Topics from the main menu. The online Help includes documentation for all IMLPlus classes and associated methods.

Stat Studio is closely related to the SAS/IML software. The language used to write programs in Stat Studio is called IMLPlus. This language consists of IML functions and subroutines, plus additional syntax to support the creation and manipulation of statistical graphics. The Stat Studio program windows color-code keywords in the IMLPlus language.

Most IML programs run without modification in the IMLPlus environment. The Stat Studio online Help includes a list of differences between IML and IMLPlus.

For your convenience in referencing related SAS software, the SAS/IML User's Guide, the SAS/STAT User's Guide, and the Base SAS Procedures Guide are available from the Stat Studio Help menu.
