All,
I am learning SAS and I am geeked and super excited to leverage the interface that JMP has to SAS.
As I was getting to set up some testing using JMP, I realised the following:
Currently JMP allows the passing of a single variable from JMP into SAS as a macro using the SAS Submit function. However, I believe there will be a lot of benefit to allow passing of multiple variables or data objects like associative arrays into SAS.
// Works
ex = 1;
SAS Submit(
"
%put &ex;
",
DeclareMacros(ex),
GetSASLog( True )
);
// Fails
ex = Associative Array( {"red", "blue"}, {1, 2} );
SAS Submit(
"
%put &ex;
",
DeclareMacros(ex),
GetSASLog( True )
);
